ManagerServlet undeploy

[Amy Roh]

Undeploy fails for any app that's not installed under webapps directory. 
 For example, an attempt to undeploy /admin will fail with "Cannot 
undeploy document base for path /admin" because of the following lines 
from ManagerServlet line 1384

            // Validate the docBase path of this application
            String deployedPath = deployed.getCanonicalPath();
            String docBase = context.getDocBase();
            File docBaseDir = new File(docBase);
            if (!docBaseDir.isAbsolute()) {
                docBaseDir = new File(appBaseDir, docBase);
            }
            String docBasePath = docBaseDir.getCanonicalPath();
            if (!docBasePath.startsWith(deployedPath)) {
                writer.println(sm.getString("managerServlet.noDocBase",
                                            displayPath));
                return;
            }
Any app that's installed using context configuration file with docBase 
other than "../webapps" will not pass the condition since deployedPath 
is always ../webapps.

What is the reasoning behind this validation?

Thanks,
Amy
