Why do you think the default is bad?

Because it breaks the spec's and allows unexpected handling of url that
are encoded (for example: /context-A/%252E%252E/context-B that is send
to Tomcat as /context-A/%2E%2E/context-B and mapped by Tomcat
as /context-B).

So what how do you suggest to handle a change.

- Being secure by default, i.e. really changing the default in 1.2 and putting a big note about it in the docs, the news page and maybe the download README

or/and

- Staying compatible in 1.2, changing in 1.3 but putting a big note in the docs page about the options concerning the security relevance of the options.
