This seems like the very very hard way to do it. Use request.getServletPath()
in the JSP page and stash it in the session.

JSP page:

<% 
    session.setAttribute("domain.mine.myapp.jsp_page", request.getServletPath());
%>

Servlet:
    String jsp_page = request.getSession().getAttribute("domain.mine.myapp.jsp_page");
    if (jsp_page == null) {
        // uh, oh
    }
