Ok, thanks. I had thought that cocoon was playing with the context since the idea of sub context (as far as I know) doesn't exist in Servlet spec.
I'm dealing with file uploads, and it's inappropriate to put them all in a work directory, and inappropriate to place them all under the context root. So, is there a correct way to gain runtime knowledge of where I am in a sub sitemap directory? ie, without hardwiring it in code or sitemap param?

Servlet in Cocoon is one, CocoonServlet, and deployed at '/' (webapp root).
