--- Comment #18 from Christopher Schultz <ch...@christopherschultz.net> ---
How applicable is <security-role-ref> in web.xml, here?

I would expect a file without any explicit path information to be in the
application's WEB-INF/ directory if the component were to be configured in the
applications' WEB-INF/web.xml file. If it is configured in conf/server.xml for
the server, I might expect the config file to be found in the server's conf/
directory. I'm not sure it's possible to detect the difference between the two
situations from within the code. Therefore, I'd prefer to default to
relative-to-WEB-INF but also allow (as Michael suggests) arbitrary file:// URI
support as well as allowing ${catalina.base} replacement in the path to make it
easy to build an installation-relative path.
