Well, no one's forcing you to hand-code it. ;)
You could write a quick for() loop in {your preferred language here}
to generate the content, then copy'n'paste. When the page changes,
do a find'n'replace in {your preferred text editor}.
If you want to be fancy about it -- say, you expect the name of the
error page to change regularly -- I'm sure you could work some Ant
magic to have this XML block generated for each build and folded into
web.xml.
Overkill? It would be, if there were a spec-compliant way of doing
it. (-and I agree, it would be nice if there were.) Since there isn't
such a way, all you can do is roll up your sleeves and get to work.
