Yes.  The WF tool has an option to bundle up the entire lot of converted
panels as a WAR or EAR file, which WAS imports as a native Java app.

Each record format has several JSP files with corresponding servlets.  The
exact number depends on whether the rcdfmt is input, output or both.  The
only JAR is the WF runtime.  The MVC model is implemented by JSP-View,
Servlet-Model, WFRun.jar-Controller.  Don't quote me precisely on the name,
but you get the idea.

I can't answer these parts.  Maybe I'll get the time to fire up WAS and try
it.
