we considered every possibility. it is not possible to select the
appropriate pipeline and maintain backwards compat without doing what
we have done. or leaking lots of abstraction to the user.

in any case the static fields dont hurt anyone and the only side
effect is that certain types of tests can't be run concurrently (in
the same vm). this is pretty negligible compared to the pain of
breaking backwards compat and the ability to constructor inject
filters and servlets, etc.
