CloneUtils - utility class to enable cloning via various different mechanisms. This code exists in [pattern] at present.
StringUtils truncateNicely method - A substring with some extra power to choose where to cut off. It was in Avalon and was added separately to String Taglib from a code submission. This suggests it may have some commonality. [CODED]
StringUtils parseBoolean method - This method is in OSCore's TextUtils and seems very reusable. It could go in a BooleanUtils if such a need was seen. [CODED]
StringUtils uncapitaliseAllWords method - String Taglib has shown that this method is missing from StringUtils. [CODED]
StringUtils unescape method - String Taglib has shown that this method is missing from StringUtils. It would take a String with "\n" in and convert it to the Java character. unescape and escape should be symmetric.

+GUID and other Identifier generators - these may belong in [util], some code exists in [pattern] at the moment
