In Chapter 9.1 the Java Servlet Specification 2.3 says:

"A servlet container can establish rules for automatic generation of web applications. 
For example a ~user/ mapping could be used to map to a web application based at 
/home/user/public_html/."

Does Tomcat 4 support this? I know, the specification explicitly says "can," but this 
feature would be really useful! All servlet developers could just put their web 
applications into $HOME/webapps and Tomcat would automatically create them a context 
on startup.

The WebAppDeploy directive does not seem to support this. Can it be achieved somehow 
else?

thanks,
Christoph
