Is Context.version a "good name" to use? Since the name version is also

Good point. Maybe webappVersion?
Sounds good.

[I thought of this as a side effect of reading the patch ...]
Would it be a good idea if Tomcat by default always has a default ROOT
webapp? Then we can guarantee a webapp is always mapped and we can let
that webapp handle the 404 error. This might simplify some of the mapper
and adapter code. So if there is no default webapp - tomcat inserts the
default.
Another good point. Maybe just use the default servlet?
Maybe ... I was of thinking something like a webapp with this (logical)
definition.
<Context path="" docBase="/dev/null" />
And then (assuming) the default servlet is in
$CATALINA_HOME/conf/web.xml we then will not need an extra web.xml
(but it might be convenient to do so in case the defaults in the system
web.xml have undesirable behaviors)
