My feeling is that the view that is impacted most often is the validation response. Not much else changes. Right now, we’ve got a fair bit of code and logic embedded inside the JSP that over time would be hard to maintain and confusing for people to modify, particularly. It would possibly be easier if all that code was moved to the appropriate layer, (similar to SAML views) and we’d let the view handle just the rendering of it (which isn’t much really). I don’t think the problem we are trying to solve is related to the choice of the rendering engine.
P.S: Specifically on Velocity, I used the engine when I was writing a content management portlet for uPortal. Not the best experience, especially because the project is very dated and Spring support is far better with JSPs. (Google tells me the last release was 2010).
