So a URI could look like this:

/context/something;p1=val;p2=val/morestuff

... and that URI would match /context/something/morestuff as a
uri-pattern for, say, filter or servlet mappings? Does Tomcat attempt
to ignore path parameters when going these types of matches? (I'd read
the code, but the mapper is, as you know... complex).

Path segments are separated by / characters, so perhaps I could adjust
my "ignore the path parameters" algorithm to work like this:

Starting from the end of the URI, rewind until I hit a "/", then go
forward until I hit a ";", then trim forward from the ";".

Or, I could just say "ignore anything like
';jsessionid=[0-9A-Za-z]*'", but that's a little presumptuous and
potentially fragile as well.
