It's a security concern if you don't trust your developers or
infrastructure. On my project, that's not a problem. The current application
I'm working on uses JSP, but it has a customized Resource loader that allows
templates to be loaded from a JAR on a remote server. This means a single
JAR can be updated (it contains static pages with mostly text) and all 50
front-end servers will pick up the content change transparently. The JSP
compile is also used to process e-mails since it's not tied to the Servlet
API. I'm curious to see if Wicket has a similar mechanism. It's nice to have
a single view technology for rendering dynamic, static and e-mail content.
FreeMarker seems to offer this ability.

Thanks,

Matt
