I think the IDE needs alot more work to make working with jsp files easier.  The IDE does not check jsp files very well.  see the pic.
this file was deployed to production and it took some time to figure things out.  this bug made it past tests, etc.

The main sore point is that the JSP files don't support refactoring of the java code. So if you remove/rename/move a class or package then JSP file won't be updated and  you won't see usages in the refactoring window.

There's also a subsidiary problem that the JSP file is not marked w/ an error badge if there's an error found by the JSP parser. The badging works for example for expression language expressions.

I've file new bug for the second problem:

Bug 234704 - No error badge JSP file errors by the JSP parser 

The first problem is covered by following enhancement:

Bug 205599 - Rename refactoring in JSP is not supported!! 

Closing this isssue then.
