I might be mis-interpretting your statement, but it sounds like you're thinking about scripting as a runtime extension model. I think that's one usecase for groovy, or jruby. The other usecase is actually building your pages or services. Since groovy (and I believe jruby) actually compile to bytecode that can be packaged up as a class just like a .java file you can use some of the nice language features for building pages. For instance, in groovy you're pages wouldn't have to define all the extraneous getter/setters for the pages properties. With intellij and maven both supporting combining java and groovy source in the same project, I've been thinking more about ditching the heavy java syntax for xml processing and using groovy's XMLParser/XMLSlurper...
