Add some documentation about feature coverage #2

Currently it is pretty unclear which features of Rythm are fully supported and which PlayRythm features are supported. Is there a roadmap which PlayRythm features are supposed to be migrated to Spring MVC?

As a sidenote, is there a particular reason why PlayRythm has @msg(...)/&(...) for i18n and this project uses @message?

Rythm Templat Engine features is fully supported e.g. @extends, @args, @section, etc..., but do not cover PlayRythm supported features e.g. &{i18n.code} or @url(Application.index), because Play Framework has many magic features and very hard to implement those in Spring Framework.

For the @message is not match PlayRythm i18n @msg syntax. Solution is create a JavaTag and extends com.ctlok.springframework.web.servlet.view.rythm.tag.Message then override getName() method to return "msg" and register in Rythm Engine. Next version may be support @message and @msg syntax for i18n message.

I will create a document for developer to know which Rythm Template Engine features is supported and help developer easily migrate form Play Framework to Spring Web MVC.

I am glad that you are interested. :)
