Make sense.

In JkMount you'll need to indicate ALL the URL handled under the given context, 
ie /myapp/servlet/* /myapp/*.jsp. With JkAutoMount if you provide the 
base context, the servlet-engine will give them to web-servlet. 
Imagine you install cocoon on myapp, it's will handle also the .xml. 
servlet-engine is allready aware that it should handle the .xml, so
just let him inform the web-server. (less works)

No more confusion if we use :

mod_jk today :

JkMount /examples ajpworkername

mod_jk could use also now :

JkAutoMount examples ajpworkername /examples 

What about ?
