If you are serving static files but want to keep the deployment simple,
it's very straight forwarded to set up a new context, such as /images/ to
purely serve static resources. I've done it in a few occasions and the nice
thing about it is that you don't really need more than one liner in an xml
file and you can configure the resource "webapplication" with very
aggressive caching settings (at least Tomcat allows caching and serving
everything from memory).
