I would expect a GET or other request to the document root for your instance of 
apache would look for a file named index.html or index.cgi and execute that. 
Apache has defaults that create a directory listing for the case without an 
index* file, but I'm pretty sure you can change that name with a directive.  
Should it be "application.xxx"?

An index.cgi could look at the environment variables and notice the 
"application" in the call and treat it specially. A procedure like that would 
be nearly impossible if there are multiple applications available.

Could you add an extra /application in the DNS server with a CNAME?
