I agree. JSP 1.1 says that everything that's not a JSP element is
treated as template text, and that any type of markup (text) language
can be used as template text. This means that a pure XML document,
with an <?xml version="1.0?> element at the top, is a valid JSP
page using the JSP 1.1 syntax.
The best (only?) way to identify a page that uses the JSP 1.2 XML syntax
is what you suggest: look for a jsp:root element. This should be
clarified in the JSP 1.2 spec.
