I would really like to have something more modular too - I understand that NIO and the other connector stuff is unlikely to see the main branch, but I think 'minimal standalone + modules' deserves a chance.
Even if we continue to ship by default a bloated tomcat, with all the features anyone can think of or ever wanted - having those features organized like modules would make a lot of things easier and better. Almost all important platforms are designed this way - apache, jboss, firefox, etc, it would be time for tomcat as well.. By minimal standalone tomcat I mean: coyote http11 + servlet + jsp + minimal set of valves to have a TCK-accepted container. Modules == jdbc authenticators, load balancing, ssl, jk, even APR, and anything that could be eventually released or upgraded independently.
