Hi Ted, Sorry to lurk in on this conversation, but XML to generate uncompiled JSP seems rather silly ;)
For what you were mentioning why not just use XML, however make all the tags custom tags. Then you are using the JSP container as a transformation engine. The performance is the same as a compiled JSP, plus you can code in just about anything in those custom tags, and you are using your J2EE skillset. No need for XSLT. FYI, I mention this because I use it heavily on my website with great success. If you are interested take a peek at this tutorial I've got in the works (http://www.jspinsider.com/content/jfalkner/multiclienttags/mct_0.view). I'll also be chatting about this at JavaOne.
