You should be able to write a Servlet "controller" that uses the
Application's forwardRequest() or forwardRequestFast() method to forward to
the appropriate view, which could be either a PSP or a Servlet.

Any shared code can be implemented in a common base class -- PSP pages can
inherit from a base class, just as Servlets can.

In other words, you should be able to do exactly what you want.
