Nick Lloyd commented on MTOMCAT-189:
------------------------------------
This is meant to support modifications that you can make to a regular tomcat
installation via the conf/catalina.properties files where you can add
directories to the different classloaders. Why this matters is if you want to
have directories containing configuration files that you want to access across
servlets via the classpath.
Different beast from adding dependencies.
Note that this functionality already exists in tomcat6-maven-plugin for the run
goal, I am simply expanding it to include run-war and also incorporating the
change into tomcat7-maven-plugin.
