If logging is what you guys are interested in, there's a very simple logging
facility atleast for JSPs. You can configure the init-param jspVerbosityLevel
for JspServlet to get lots of output from the JSP engine. For example, add this
to the web.xml file of the context that you are interested in:

    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>
            jsp
        </servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>
            org.apache.jasper.runtime.JspServlet
        </servlet-class>
 <load-on-startup>
            -2147483646
 </load-on-startup>
 <init-param>
   <param-name>jspVerbosityLevel</param-name>
   <param-value>5</param-value>
 </init-param>
    </servlet>

    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>
            jsp
        </servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>
            *.jsp
        </url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>

Don't know about discussion here, but I've found it quite helpful to
have various flags, for example per-class, in a Servlet engine, that
turn on logging of various routine information by the engine itself.  I
have a farily general-purpose servlet control panel to turn these on and
off.

I've found logging of request, headers, response headers, and
specifically cookie information particularly helpful.

I would be happy to contribute code that uses reflection to turn flags
on and off.  If Jakarta configuration is very dynamic, that could be
another way to go.
