That's overly simplified. Unlike the classpath for a normal console application, the directory structure of a webapp has special meanings. See SRV.9.5 in the Servlet Spec, which tells you what to put in WEB-INF/classes and what to put in WEB-INF/lib. If you put jars in WEB-INF/classes, you're at best in questionable territory. If you open a Bugzilla issue for this, don't be surprised to see it closed as invalid or just left unattended.
