Not sure that you can do much at the Context level, but have you 
looked at the "deployOnStartup" attribute of the Host element in your 
server.xml file?  As I understand it, if that is set to false, it will prevent 
a 
Host from being deployed until the server receives a request for that 
application.

I usually create a new Host for each web application rather than adding 
contexts under the default host.  The only functionality I lose this way is 
automated deployment of a _new_ application, but the benefits 
outweigh that loss for me.  One benefit is the ability to stop an 
application from loading up on startup.
