Description

I've seen several posts on the mailing lists asking for how to render blocks manually in pages/components.

Had a use case in this issue: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-1863

Basically I tried with:
--------
RenderCommand renderCommand = (RenderCommand)alertBlock;
MarkupWriter markupWriter = new MarkupWriterImpl();
RenderQueueImpl renderQueue = new RenderQueueImpl(log);
renderQueue.push(renderCommand);
renderQueue.run(markupWriter);

alertManager.info(markupWriter.toString());
--------

Don't know if it's the 'correct' way of doing things so requesting a service or a helper class available in core that does the job.
