Yes, but it's actually the reverse of what I'm interested in :-)

 From what I've read the JSR is more about allowing scripting languages 
to access and use java objects. It may look cool - but there
are already plenty of scripting languages targeting the JVM - jython,
mozilla's javascript, bsh, etc. There are 2 great things about scripting
languages, one is the simplicity of syntax and the ease of developing
code. This is IMO covered well enough by the variants targeting the VM.
( I believe cocoon is using javascript already ).

The other great thing about scripting languages is the large collection 
of existing extensions and scripts.

To use Apache as example - having Apache call native java modules for 
auth is interesting, but using the existing collection of apache modules 
  is IMO the real value :-).
Apache is more than the HTTP stack ( and while we have a very good http
implementation in tomcat, I'm not sure we can match the amount of 
testing and review and stability apache's got ). And Python/PHP/etc are 
more than a syntax to use in a page.
