It sounds as if Turbine does more of what your after ( http://java.apache.org/turbine
) - which can use ECS or other related tools (eg WebMacro) for the core screen
building, but also provides a clean flow control, you have actions and screens
separated out.
Turbine is the servlet/ECS integration you are looking for.
Don't let its "unreleased" state fool you - its very usable.
