I see an advantage of unified EL in creating proper names for HTML input elements and automatic propagation if input data to backing beans. Basically, this is kind of Struts HTML tags + beanutils + proper type conversion or WebWork tags + OGNL. Doing it JSF way is more unified, instead of having different Struts 1, Struts 2 or Stripes way. This feature is not planned for JSP 2.1, but I think it can be implemented. Sun pushes JSF and implements new features in JSF only.
