The list strips attachments but there is enough information for me to
reproduce the behaviour with a simple webapp. (The moral here is that
you should aim to reproduce any problem you report with as simple a
webapp as possible. A 5 line JSP and a 3 line context.xml file is all
that is needed for this issue.)

OK. That copies the WAR file to the appBase of a running Tomcat instance
so with the default config it will be unpacked and deployed.

OK. That will have no effect as although Tomcat sees the new file it
does not redploy the webapp (arguably it should at this point - I'll
look into that).

That causes Tomcat to deploy the webapp using the context.xml file.

This is the interesting bit. I do see the context.xml file being deleted.

I'm not sure if this is the correct behaviour or not. There are a lot of
variables when looking at auto-deployment. I have been meaning to sit
down and document all the possible combinations. This might be the time
to do that.
