Right, but I've always been against sticking templates into a relational database system, and I've never heard of any other good alternative database for document storage.
I suppose that using an unpacked WAR is one solution, but what about the issue of security? Content people should not have write access to the unpackaged WAR directory. Does anyone else accomplish this without a relational database?
