Will I be able to drop my own libraries in /common/endorsed to be used as
the /common/lib is today? per the other thread, native libraries will not
work in /WEB-INF/lib, so if I can put whatever I need into /common/endorsed,
then that would be ok. But I thought everything in the endorsed dir would be
treated as 'endorsed' libraries, or would I be able to configure that?

Maybe I don't understand enough about the endorsed libraries, if I put
something into /common/endorsed, that doesn't override an existing library,
is it just loaded as normal?

am I asking too many questions? :)
