True and it's mostly not a big issue.  However, is it possible for a
ServletContext to reference one context path and the Request objects to have
a different one?  Most webapps only operate under a single context path
(don't they?), so having it at initialization would be nice too.  Oh well...
With the path, I could build URLs for email and other logging info at
initialization that cannot be done dynamically without knowing the
host/port/contextpath.
