/**
 * This is the tag handler for <tiles-el:get>, which gets content from
 * the request scope and either includes the content or prints it, depending
 * upon the value of the content's <code>direct</code> attribute. <p> This tag
 * is intended to be compatible with the same tag from Templates (David
 * Geary).  Implementation extends InsertTag for facility (no so well). The
 * only difference is the default value of attribute 'ignore', which is
 * <code>true</code> for this tag (default behavior of David Geary's
 * templates). <p> This class is a subclass of the class
 * <code>org.apache.struts.taglib.tiles.GetAttributeTag</code> which provides
 * most of the described functionality.  This subclass allows all attribute
 * values to be specified as expressions utilizing the JavaServer Pages
 * Standard Library expression language.
