Hmm... Come on guys, that wasn't so complicated!
I found the solution, a bit by chance. It seems you simply have to specify the template elements that your template contains.
Even though you might have <cms:template element="ELEMENT1"> tags in your jsp file, that's not enough.
You need to describe these elements so that OpenCms uses them!
So... The solution is... Add the list of template elements to the "template-elements" property of your JSP template file. The format is of form: ELEMENT1|Description 1,ELEMENT2|Description 2 and so on. For instance, for the "simple template", I added: head|Head Element,body|Body Element,foot|Foot Element and it finally worked.
To do this, you will have to right click on the file, choose "Properties", and then "Advanced".
I don't know if OpenCms is supposed to generate that list automatically, or if you need to write it yourself, but unfortunately, that is one more thing I really didn't find in any documentation!
