I don't see this as a spec bug, I think it's quite deliberate. Sometimes you
need to redirect to sth outside the web app. What'd be the point of having
sendRedirect() duplicate the functionality of the RequestDispatcher?

When I have multiple web applications running on the one server - I'm having problems
referencing files in other directories.
eg - I can't use "/images/anImage.gif" because that references the document root. I
can use "%= request.getContextPath() %/images/anImage.gif" ,but that gets tedious.
is relative to the host (stupid spec bug!) so
you need to put an rcp in front of that.
