Hi team,

Why have we specifically captured web app names with version separator
("##") as not supported [1] ?

AFAIU Apache Tomcat supports this property [2].
This property is useful when we want to provide the versioning on the WAR
name but do not need to change the web app context (Ex : patch release of a
webapp). Because changing web app context on every patch release of an API
will highly affect its clients.

Thanks.
