org.apache.axis2.transport.http.AxisServlet.doGet() mishandles URLs with the 
word "policy" in them.

                 Key: AXIS2-4229
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4229
             Project: Axis 2.0 (Axis2)
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: transports
    Affects Versions: 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.4.1
         Environment: Linux, but clearly affects all OSes.
            Reporter: John G


I have a simple web service that happens to involve policies.  Guess what 
happens when doGet() sees my URL?
    https://myserver/mywebapp/services/PolicyService/executePolicy?policyId=123

// From org.apache.axis2.transport.http.AxisServlet ...
    protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request,
                         HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, 
IOException {
        if ((query != null) && (query.indexOf("wsdl2") >= 0 ||
                query.indexOf("wsdl") >= 0 || query.indexOf("xsd") >= 0 ||
                query.indexOf("policy") >= 0)) {   <=== BUG ====
            // handling meta data exchange stuff
            agent.processListService(request, response);
    ....

I can rename my parameter, but the fact that you are searching for an English 
word ANYWHERE in the query is just wrong, IMHO.  
Now I am just worried a customer will use my web service and happen to name 
something "policy-xyz".  
Are there any other reserved words I need to know about?!?
