Of course, there are many ways, none of them advised.  You want to keep
your webapp as a whole, that's the whole point of a WAR file.  You can
symlink (at the filesystem level) or use normal HTTP linking to access
your static content.  But you can't symlink in a WAR, so...

And I agree with Justin, just to be clear.  I wasn't advocating anything
different from what he said, just showing you that it can technically be
done.  If crossContext forwards are the worst design choices on this
list, we'll be in great shape.
