Attributes
 
    Tags has attributes. Attribute behavior is different from a property,
    so it is necessary to use a different annotation/doclet to use it.
    Usually tags are written by users, but has few attributes and does not
    have a complex hierarchy, so it is not necessary make tags inherit
    attributes from other tags.
    
    The objective of use @JSFJspTag and @JSFJspAttribute annotation/doclet is
    make easier keep synchronized the .tld file with the tag class.
    
* Attribute loaded from basic type

    On jsf 1.1 and in some special cases, no ValueExpressions are allowed
    on some attribute.

-------------------
    /** 
      * On tlds this is translated to something like:
      *
      * <attribute>

      *    <required>false</required>

    public void setVar(String var)

    There are two cases

    /** 
      * On jsf 1.1 this translates to something like:

      *
