Lajos,
OTOH, the adding of this context will make the Tomcat doc and Tomcat home
page unreacheable.
There are ways around it (like the adding of /root and /tomcat-docs
contexts),
but replacing the default Tomcat behaviour doesn't seem to me such a good
idea; though, it may be just fine for a production environment.
In my opinion the use of mod_rewrite, ugly as it may be, is still the path
of least resistance (it doesn't alter the behaviour of anything).
Best regards,
