[Radiant] Access to params within extension

[Daniel Sheppard]

The @request object is made available to a Page, but the tags are not
evaluated within the context of a page. If you have a method on your
page such as:

class MyPage < Page
  def monkeys
    @request.params[:monkeys]
  end
end

Then you could reference that from your tag:

  tag 'monkeys' do |tag|
    tag.locals.page.monkeys
  end

	Can someone give me a leg up? I'm finding it difficult to find
the request.params array anywhere within the Page context. I have setup
a custom route as part of my extension (not for the admin area, but for
the main site) and in that route I have mapped some custom params I
really want to access. 

	Any ideas... I tried tag.local.parms[], tag.page.param[],
@request.param[], etc.

	Looking through the models/page.rb and taggable I don't see any
place I'd get this from, but I'm hoping I'm missing something.

	Thanks,

	Loren Johnson
