One way to implement this is to mount the application context at "/" and 
the jersey root at "/application", then registering a redirect servlet at 
"/"

```config.yml
server:
  type: simple
  applicationContextPath: /
  rootPath: /application
  adminContextPath: /admin
```

```YourApplication.java
    @Override
    public void run(final SampleContextConfiguration configuration,
                    final Environment environment) {
        environment.servlets().addServlet("root-redirect", new 
HttpServlet() {
            @Override
            protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, 
HttpServletResponse resp) throws IOException {
                resp.sendRedirect("/application");
            }
        }).addMapping(""); // empty string maps to root path only, "/" will 
map to any unmapped path
    }
```

Does that do what you're looking for?
