I think that I'd have to say that the main cons are:-

  (a) It does demand a certain level of OO coding, in terms of being
happy to override classes & typically to be able to create anonymous
classes - not a huge amount, but coders grounded in procedural code
will feel lost.

  (b) The documention is scattered - partly because there are so many
ways that it can go beyond the basic web-page (i.e. page inheritance,
panels/fragments, embeded forms, built-in AJAX, security, etc,) that
not much short of an encylopedia could do it justice!
