Well, I haven't tried this, but I did notice someone a while ago saying that this DOES work, as long as you use a small trick. The "welcome-file" does have to specify a file that exists, but that doesn't mean the web container will actually SERVE that file. The person who mentioned this said that they just created the named file and gave it arbitrary contents (like "This will never be served to the client"). The web container then passed the URL to the controller, which forwarded to the appropriate action.
