-  -1:
+  -1: kkolinko: 1) It would be OK if it were mangling only reserved words
+    (where the tag wouldn't compile previously, so there were no regressions),
+    but JspUtils.makeJavaIdentifier() mangles '_' character, which will break
+    code that was previously working. E.g. <%=hello_world%>
+    2) Maybe it would be better to prefix the names with [_]jsp_ and use some
+    numbered suffix, to never collide with names that people may use in their
+    code.
