+1 to using IntelliJ's remote debugging facilities. I've done this with Tomcat too - just edit catalina.sh to add the parameters to the JVM invocation that the IntelliJ remote run configuration suggests.
With Tomcat you'll have to build the war using the Ant build, but that's more sensible anyway, since that's the official/supported build.
