File abstraction is already present in Tomcat (for example, JSP used to run on top of Slide), so you can have all webapp resources loaded from a repository of your choice, rather than the filesystem.
Agreed. If you want generated source and classes to be stored in the repository,
then I really don't see the point. For starters, it's an implementation detail which could go away.
I agree with the second point. For the first point - why not storing the java sources and class files in the filesystem: We are building a system ontop of JCR which supports staging with replication. We will have separate development, author and publishing systems, where JSP development generally take place on the development system. There are use cases, where we would not want to replicate the JSP sources but the JSP class files. In these cases, having the class files in the repository would allow us to use the same mechanics for this. Regards Felix
