I'm packaging upstream software (css-validator) for Debian so your

Really? How is your css validator packaged? Is it a web application, or
just a component of a web application?
So I created a request on bugzilla.
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=69735
Thanks for that. Can you maybe update the bug to indicate specifically
which features of mod_negotiation you actually need? I suspect you
mostly want Tomcat to be able to auto-select index.html.en from a
directory. But do you need support for type-map files? Do you need
support for Accept-Encoding and Accept-Charset?
Actually I can't say more that what is in the bug/enhancement request. Jetty
has the same issue as tomcat and didn't ask for such details. Please understand
that as a user, my technical knowledge is limited.
You can have a look at upstream's static pages if you need details.
https://github.com/w3c/css-validator/
about.html.en would be a good starting point, then look at the html links at the bottom of the
page "Home Documentation Download Feedback Credits". They link to pages that don't
exist per se, but exist with html.<language> suffix only.
On the official css-validator server which runs jigsaw http server it works,
but neither on jetty, nor on tomcat.

Oh, I see: you have a bunch of static files and you just want to be able
to have them load on as many web servers as possible.
You've been spoiled by general-purpose web servers like httpd and
jigsaw, which surely stole the idea from httpd :)
Tomcat and Jetty are special-purpose application servers which were
written primarily to serve dynamic content but had to support static
content for some obvious reasons. But they don't support all of the
crazy stuff that many general-purpose web servers support.
I've been thinking about how to implement this, and I might have some
code soon.
