Description

It's very common for people to deactivate certain features in production, such as the verbose exception report. Further, certain safe things (such as using automagically stripped/compressed JavaScript) are desirable only in production, but not in development. Tapestry should define a symbol, tapestry.production-mode, that defaults to "true". Developers can override this by adding -Dtapestry.production-mode=false to the launch command line.
