Wow this is cool. I really didn't think this would be possible without
a big kudge hack :)
I'm excited to see the code.

So do I! :)
The jetty builder really doesn't do anything jetty specific any more
(except construct one set of redundant security info, that Alan and I
are hoping to figure out a way to remove). So, it might be possible
to reuse the jetty builder for tomcat.
Sounds excellent.
To do this we would need, for tomcat,
gbean for web application (JettyWebAppJACCContext)
It's already done - not yet finished, but works. It's in
TomcatWebAppContext. I'm reviewing Jeff's changes pertaining to
security, so it may be that JAAC counterpart is also done.
gbean for servlet (JettyServletHolder)
gbean for filter (JettyFilterHolder)
gbean for filter mapping (JettyFilterMapping)
These look fairly easy to implement as I think they should differ from
the Jetty ones. I'll be looking into it.
(I've put the jetty oriented gbean classes in for reference).
If the tomcat versions of these gbeans had the same attributes and
references as the jetty ones, the only difference would be the
classes to get the GBeanData objects from. This is easy to
parameterize.
I keep focused on the features to see how far we can go with it.
