Hi Bastian- Your questions lead me to believe that you don't fully understand what GWT is or does.
The GWT simply rewrites java code into java script. This is entirely a client thing that has nothing to do with a server. Now, there is also GWT RPC, which allows this rewritten (or translated) javascript to make asynchronous calls to a server. This is typically done with a java server and Tomcat will work just fine. As someone else said, once you are in the Tomcat environment you can do whatever you want. Good luck!
