Description

From Click Hacks:
-------------------------

2. Non-control public fields are auto-put into the VelocityContext

We hacked ClickServlet.createVelocityContext to walk public fields, find
ones that are not-null and not-controls, and call context.put(fieldName,
value).

So we get to skip adding values to the model, we just always know in a page
if we do "this.publicBooleanField = true;", that we can then do
"$publicBooleanField" in the template.
