public class Util

extends java.lang.Object

This class includes several utility functions used by various input tags. Functionality common to several classes is located here on the relatively renegade premise that building variability into a design is better than using even single inheritance. (For example, the interfaces to all utility functions is clearly outlined here , and the utility functions don't have access to private members of the "interesting" classes.) I'll defend that this is more straightforward than a base class that includes these any day.
