[not so much for physical directories but more for request uris]
you should check out servlet 2.2, section 1.0 "Mapping Requests
to Servlets":
http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/2.2
in short, you can assign a servlet (or jsp) to handle all inbound
requests for, say, /bop prefaced paths ... in effect achieving
what i believe your looking for. there are other mapping options
which makes this feature pretty compelling in my book. cool
mojo!
side note: the above infomration is valid within the context of a
web application (servlet 2.2, section 9) which will manage it'sown
request uri space. the request mapping stuff is relevant within any
one deployed web application context.
hope this helps,
