I've got a vague recollection that some some such Tomcat-specific extension
was proposed on the dev list. Can't remember if it was ever implemented
(and to which version), and I'm much to lazy to look it up :). However, the
5.5.9 behavior is in strict compilance with the Servlet spec (and, hence
anything but "crazy").

Simplest is with a Filter that does something like:
RequestDispatcher rd = null;
if(request.getRequestURI().endsWith("/firstpage.html") {
rd = getServletContext().getNamedDispatcher("servlet1");
} else if(request.getRequestURI().endsWith("/secondpage.html");
rd = getServletContext().getNamedDispatcher("servlet2");
}
if(rd != null) {
rd.forward(request, response);
}
