This is when I wish I was on linux so I could try it, but Chuck will be able
to tell us anyway.
What would happen if the user made a linux sym-link under the tomcat ROOT
folder to
/home/mydir1/mydir/ as mydir.... would that work?

Subject: making a directory we accesible
so suppose all my files are in
/home/mydir1/mydir/test.txt,
I should be able to access them as
localhost:8080/mydir/test.txt.
Create a file named $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost/mydir.xml and
put just the following in it:
<Context docBase="/home/mydir1/mydir" />
Should be all you need, assuming whatever userid Tomcat is running under
has access to that directory.
