Yes, the curent portlet API expects the portlets to return their content as
a ConcreteElement. This will change with the new portlet API. (I'll check
the javadoc proposal it in tonight, latest tomorrow morning - promised!).
There is a workaround for using JSPs at the moment, you can use the
util/servlet/EcsServletElement to generate the content with a JSP, but
still return it in Ecs style...
There is nothing alike for velocity, but it might be easy to modify the
EcsServletElement to an EcsVelocityElement and use it until the new API is
implemented...
