I've only found JSP to architecturally make sense when used as a
presentation layer.
I'm a fan of a plug and play pres. layer, which give the content designers
the greatest flexibility.
It is possible to write application logic using JSP since they are
fundamentally servlets, however, I tend to lean towards just flat out
writing the servlets.
