At least it is configurable parameter of JWS. I believe, that a good servlet
engine sould provide a possibility to cofigure this parameter.

Sure, you can. It's up to your preferences, a servlet engine or your code
can decide what function should be performed. Actually, I prefer to use one
servlet for everything. It can use several servlet internally. It gives your
more possibilities, for example create own request and response classes.
