Quite right. It *is* possible for a container to pass arguments to a
servlet's constructor but there is no accepted protocol for doing it.
Therefore if you write a servlet for a particular container that
allows you to use constructors which take arguments that servlet will
NOT work with another container (unless you also provide a no-args
cons).
