Hi Achim, thanks for the response!

Yes, I will experiment and see what an "underlying server" implementation
could look like.

In the short term, I intend to use a Servlet Proxy running on the
underlying server to proxy requests to Pax Web's Jetty. This trick will
work if I can configure Jetty to use compact paths. I know Pax Web let's me
configure Jetty with jetty.xml, but can I also configure Jetty with
context.xml to set the org.eclipse.jetty.webapp.WebAppContext object's
compactPaths property?
