The real reason: Cocoon is not a Servlet.
Cocoon conceptually lives in the same space of Tomcat, not on top of it.

Cocoon is generally a servlet out of need, since it eases deployment on
existing systems.

I'm +1 for having this behaviour being toggeled effectively by the param, so
I will commit your patch if there are no -1s.
