Justin, I've been working on a similar problem, and based on what I've seen posted here, I don't think it is doable (using definitions).
Technically, it seems that in order for what you'd like to do to work, the definitions factory would need to be able to see the scope you're placing that variable in - but since it's just a configuration file (and hence isn't parsed/has no scope), it can't. Hopefully I'm wrong (both for your sake and mine), but that's the explanation I was given when I asked a similar question.

Folks, I have a message in a jsp which require a dynamic attribute that I set on a bean from an action class. I want to use that bean within the tiles definition file. Is that possible? So for example, this is what I would do in my jsp to get the dynamic attribute: [...] I want to set "directions" dynamically from a bean which I stuff into the session. Is that possible, or am I totally off here?
