See below :-)

It just seems like a common idiom to provide a portable mechanism
for protecting direct access to .jsp so as to enforce access through
some controller. I have in the past placed .jsp files "behind" WEB-INF,
but I don't believe that is portable and would like to use CMS to achieve
this.

Given that the Java" Servlet Specification Version 2.4, page 70 sez:

        A special directory exists within the application hierarchy
        named WEB-INF. This directory contains all things related to
        the application that aren't in the document root of the
        application. The WEB-INF node is not part of the public
        document tree of the application. No file contained in the
        WEB-INF directory may be served directly to a client by the
        container.

I don't know how much more "portable" you want it to be :-)

HTH!
