I don't mean to argue about this, but when you have index.jsp as a welcome-file in web.xml and that JSP forwards to your action bean, the user (and Google) *will* still see the original URL, /, in the address bar[1] and *will* see the response of the action in the content, because the JSP does a forward, not a redirect. So, I don't think that this is a case against the index.jsp solution. That being said, I'm not here to have a big argument over this - certainly there are other valid reasons for preferring a URL-rewriting solution. [1] in Tomcat and Jetty, at least.
