Agree. Those things are maintenance hogs in absurdum in my experience.

Possible in JSP1.1

Now that is novel, and which is not available in JSP. Not by default
anyway. I suppose it would be possible to send the data between the
layers (content generation -> XSLT transformer -> HTML formatter, for
example) using serialization instead of plaintext. Would improve the
situation somewhat.

If taglibs are used you can delegate to scripting languages if you wish,
but having it in by default is better. JSP page programming supports
other languages than Java though, through plugins.
XSP looks very good indeed, I just think that JSP is "more than good
enough", which is enough for me... :-)
