5.2.2 `<al-input>`

Albatross browser request merging depends upon the functionality provided by the `<al-input>` tag. If you do no use this tag in applications then the standard request merging will not work.

In the most common usage a `value` (5.2.2.11) attribute is generated by evaluating the `name` (5.2.2.5) attribute in the execution context. This can be overridden by supplying a `value` (5.2.2.11) or `expr` (5.2.2.3) attribute.

There are a number of attributes that automatically generate the `name` attribute.

When merging browser requests the application object places the browser supplied value back into the execution context value referenced by the `name` attribute. The application request merging will not merge variable names prefixed by underscore. Use this to protect application values from browser modification.
