Although model two is poorly explained in the spec, it is neither difficult,
nor does it hinder bean interoperablity. You can pass *ANY* bean to a JSP
page. The utility of Model 2 is that you can use your existing beans to
create a dynamic web interface for your "legacy" system without writing new
business objects.
As for newbies creating semi-complex systems in JSP (w/o Servlets)...good
luck. Without model two, JSP is a project manager's worst nightmare.
