> KNOX-2226 added the new Home Page to Knox which is bound to the default 
> context path in Jetty ({{/}}). However, this breaks the default topology 
> feature: if a default topology is declared (by setting 
> {{default.app.topology.name}} in {{gateway-site.xml}}) the homepage won't 
> load.
>  Recommended solution:
>  # Add the Knox Home page like a regular Knox application rather than a 
> generic web app in the Knox Jetty server with web.xml, etc. This will allow 
> it to be deployed into topologies.
>  # Add a new topology (descriptor) called {{homepage}}. This will allow for a 
> gateway URL like 
> [https://gateway-host:8443/gateway/homepage|https://gateway-host:8443/gateway/home]
>  - for anyone already familiar with Knox this would be pretty intuitive.
>  # The {{default.app.topology.name}} should default to '{{homepage'}}. So 
> that, if no custom default topology declared, the home page will be 
> accessible just like today. If someone sets {{default.app.topology.name}} in 
> {{gateway-site.xml}}, the home page will be available under 
> {{PROTOCOL://KNOX_HOST/GATEWAY_PATH/homepage/home}}
