basicPortal (a Struts Portal w/ rich UI and iBatis DAO) uses the the tiles to control the page “modules”, for example here:

You can see beta of it here, should go live:
http://sp8des.ogamo.com

ZD replaced Vignette with the Struts Portal for the 5 gaming magazines, and 10MM users (Resin 3 and a non sharing groups of app. Servers) . It has hundred of configurable pages, forums, rich UI, CMS of course, and latest of everything. For example to click on “Friends of” you can the person's friends and then you can keep drilling down. Another neat feature is that as soon as you join you can go to http://username.ogamo.com to go to your gaming home page. (When it leaves beta, it won't be called ogamo).

It was done in 3 months with 6 developers. Another nice basicPortal not done by baseBenas is installable. That's right, it installs the DB, Tomcat, Struts, the portal, etc. and you surf, very neat. Since this was not my project I am not sure if I can link it but if you e-mail me I will give you the url to download and install a Struts Portal; no source just jars and not as powerful as above.
Above is great to surf, it would take you days to see all it does.

Why don't you just use an

Maybe I didn't explain myself well.  The point is that I don't want to have
one set of tile definitions for when they're logged in, and another set for
when logged out.  I want a single set of definitions, with the status tile
putting up appropriate content depending on whether they're logged in or
not.

One way would be to have a status tile that does conditional logic, as I
showed in my snippet.

But I thought there ought to be a simple way to do away with the conditional
page and do the whole thing in the definitions file: In my definition file,
I want to say "insert tile A or tile B depending on the value of bean X"

 Husted's book, and the Wrox one, are pretty poor on their coverage of
tiles, IMO.
