OpenCms as jsp/jsf replacement for JavaEE application practical?

Hi!

I would like to ask your opinion on the possibility/practicability to use OpenCms as a sort of presentation layer for a JavaEE based (web)application.

The idea would be to use OpenCMS instead of jsp/jsf.

Imagine Java Pet Store Demo or JBoss Seam Hotel Bocking example using OpenCms as Frontend.

The reason would be to move web page design away from developers with jsp/jsf/java knowledge to some OpenCms author with knowledge about domain objects.

Authoring would not involve creating some articles/news but rather to add a new form field or design pages used in a sequence of workflow steps. Instead of SCM versioned jsp/jsf you would have OpenCms versioning. Instead of deploying a new .war you would switch some content online (of course EJBs would have to be redeployed beforehand). Instead of usual content objects like articles, news, blog entries you would have custom java beans created based on some legacy database. And so on.

Any thoughts would be appreciated,
thx, Juergen
