Ya'know, in the olden days of maimframes, and CoBOL, RPG, etc, they
used to resolve this sort of problem with an "Optimizing" compiler.
The Optimzer would perform another pass (either pre or
post-compilation) and try to optimize the code --- especially
subroutines and loops (and other high-potential code).
It seems that something of that order would be useful here (especially
going from an untyped language to a strongly-typed language).
The Optimizer could look for key words (for, do, etc,) and make some
intelligent guesses about the variables involved, or better yet,
substitute an optimized, precompiled, code block for the user-specified
code.
Again, I don't know much Java, but it seems that CF ought to be able to
generate something much closer to the jsp code.
Maybe this is an opportunity -- CFMX plugin anyone?
