Sure, there are Java libraries doing some GIS processing, but none having the breadth of a complete GIS... I must confess i have this vision: turn my browser into a GIS-client able to do everything GIS-ish with the help of a faraway server, too far-fetched ?
No, it's not too far fetched. Refractions pushed a pluggable API for
processes into GeoTools, meaning that new processes can be defined
as the need arises.
Any plan to use GRASS (via the console engine provided by JGRASS,
perhaps) as an *interim* geo-processor ?

Not in the immediate road map... but a very cool idea. I know the JGRASS folks have been making huge strides with uDig.

BTW, GeoTools has a WPS module, though there's only the POM in there 
Come to think of it, there's no GRASS-datastore, isn't it ? So, I think it will be limited to PostGIS vector data and GRASS ASCII Grid raster ones.
Using GRASS, awkward as it may be, could give us some "showcase" functionality at a rather low cost; in turn, the "showcase" may bring more interest to the topic and the thing might snowball.
