On our webwork project, we're successfully using this (copied directly from
the JSP):

<ww:if test="caseType == 'SG'">

where caseType is an bean property (from a list of beans being iterated
over) that will be "SG" if the 'if' tag contents should be rendered.
However, I think this might be a case of an interned string, so it would be
better to use .equals which should work equally well.  (We are using .equals
in other places, but only to check if the string is blank)
