Hm, you mean a static file to be served instead of Java servlet mapped to 
WebAdmin.html?

If you mean a static file, this wouldn't work I think, because our Java servlet 
for WebAdmin.html (used to serve GWT host page) uses JSP to embed dynamic data, 
for example user info, UI plugin info, etc.

(Long time ago we had static host page, but we changed it to be dynamic.)

You are right, I agree with your point.

I just feel that being explicit here is better, but it's just me.

BTW, up to now, we typically used to reference GWT application explicitly - URL 
ending with .html suffix. The only exception to this (AFAIK) is welcome page 
[ovirt-engine.jsp], where the default content template [welcome_page.template] 
has URLs without .html suffix.

@Alon/Alex - do you think we should use this convention (shorten URL, rely on 
welcome-file-list) also on other places?

Also note that the URL should end with trailing slash (before the "?" query 
part, if it's present):

 /ovirt-engine/webadmin/?query
