Xml validation is broken without them and Geronimo didn't have any AL2 versions I could just copy. I'm working on getting xml validation fixed before I start working on the new rules for web.xml fragments for Servlet 3.0 Given that xml validation has been broken for all the 6.0.x release and that no-one has complained, there is an argument for ditching the whole functionality for Tomcat 7 onwards. I haven't looked at the 3.0 web.xml fragment stuff in detail yet. There is a slim chance that there may be something that requires validation and/or having validation makes easier. If there is a preference to ditch xml validation then I'd prefer to hold off until after looking at the web fragment stuff in case validation has a use in Tomcat 7.
