servlet/servlet-mapping similar to one being added by maven pluto plugin

                 Key: PLUTO-576
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PLUTO-576
             Project: Pluto
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: maven pluto plugin
            Reporter: Gary Weaver


If the web.xml that the plugin is altering already contains a servlet and/or 
servlet-mapping element that looks very much like the ones it is adding it 
should either fail or at least generate a warning. I know that having the 
pluto-generated config in the web.xml of the portlet to be "plutofied" by the 
plugin is wrong, but if the plugin makes web.xml invalid because that info 
already exists, it seems like it should check for it. Please ignore this if it 
is an invalid request, but I remembered that it worked this way, it caused 
problems for at least a few people developing portlets for uPortal over the 
past 2 years reported on the JASIG uportal-user/portlet-dev lists, and Eric 
Dalquist just mentioned that perhaps this would be a good place to mention it 
also since uPortal now uses this plugin. Thanks, guys!
