Yes seems to be one response to my problems and perhaps your problems... ;)
What you have to do is to:

replace:

        <RequestInterceptor
            className="org.apache.tomcat.request.SimpleMapper1"
            debug="1" />

by

        <RequestInterceptor
            className="My Mapper"  <-- note it
            debug="1" />

then take SimpleMapper1.java (from the src .tar.gz file)
and play with it.

The point where you must work is in the "contextMap" method:

    public int contextMap( Request req )
    {
        log("contextMap( "+req.toString()+" )"); // return req.getRequestURI()

        String path = req.getRequestURI();

        if( path==null)
                throw new RuntimeException("ASSERT: null path in request URI");

        // Place to modify path...

        if( path.indexOf("?") >=0 )
                throw new RuntimeException("ASSERT: ? in requestURI");

        try
        {
                String host=req.getServerName();
                if(debug>0)
                        cm.log("Host = " + host);

                Container container =(Container)map.getLongestPrefixMatch( host,
path );

                if( container == null )
                        return 404;
        ...

You see that the main problem is to find the good container from the path
else you got a "404 page not found error". So you can manage the path
variable to reflect what you want...

note: decompiling the class MatcherDemoApplet.class in the
jakarta-oro-2.04.tar.gz package
      could give you a way to manage it and thus enhance considerably Tomcat
servlet aliasing ;)

Build it!

Do you want to do something like a mod_rewrite in Java for Tomcat? :)
Would be cool :) Can't you use a Servlet and a RequestDispatcher?
