I have used Java for both client, server, GUI apps, and clients haven't complaint about speed or look and feel.
For the tag libs argument that web designers will have easier time with it than java, good luck! They have to learn them anyway to get things to work, and it's no different.
Saying "tag libs separate model and view" is half true. It depends. It's probably good for tools to generate view using tag libs. For programmer, separating or not is their choice.
Having a mixed languages in source code is hard to read. I think that people should use Java as much as possible, anywhere (view, model, what not). However, in the view area, you can also use tags if that speeds development time, or simplify thing, or if java is not possible to do so. In all cases, do not put model code in the view. In the view, if you use <if> or if()..., they're both logics and no architural difference here.

Hello
I agree that I find taglibs impossible to understand.
Tag libraries are not actually that difficult, and offer many advantages.
I just thought I would mention that, for the record :-)
