 Log:
 Add missing case to support the following web.xml:
 
     <servlet>
         <display-name>ServletTest</display-name>
         <servlet-name>ServletTest</servlet-name>
         <servlet-class>test.ServletTest</servlet-class>
     </servlet>
     <servlet-mapping>
         <servlet-name>ServletTest</servlet-name>
         <url-pattern>*.screen</url-pattern>
     </servlet-mapping>
     <welcome-file-list>
        <welcome-file>welcome.screen</welcome-file>
     </welcome-file-list>
 
 All Servlet TCKs passed. Please review (I recall some discussion on 
welcome file but can't find those emails).
 

-1, this was on purpose. Extension mapping in welcome files cannot work.
Since you have no way of testing if the resource exists or not, the 
request will *always* be redirected to the welcome file. It also means 
that, with the default settings and mappings, all requests to a folder 
will end up being redirected to index.jsp. I thought this was obvious 
enough.
Not enough for me ;-). So if it's impossible, the spec should be 
updated, righ?
