Don't think so.  The empty string is used only to specify the path of the 
default context, not pattern matching for a servlet or filter within a context. 
 For global matching in servlets and filters, you must use "/*"; to specify the 
default servlet you use "/".  Using a url-pattern of "/" for a filter doesn't 
seem to make any sense, since there is no concept in the spec of a "default 
filter".
