 This comment puzzles me. It's generally a very good thing when
people want to use your code, and it's especially good when 
they want to use it for something the original authors never 
thought of. 

 Of course, that isn't really the case here. Tomcat 4 was (at
least according to the original proposal) intended for this sort
of thing.

 Since most of the current set of developers don't want to use
it that way, it's perfectly fair to tell people they're on their own.
They've got the source, right? If somebody wants something, 
they can implement it themselves. But to tell them "Don't use
Tomcat" gives them a (hopefully) very wrong impression.
