There's got to be a better way of writing Filter-mapping than the following, where I 
want to allow any URL that begins either with:
a) /Products/*  or 
b) /<2 characters>/Products/* 

---------------------->8--------------------------

<filter-mapping>
  <filter-name>ProductsFilter</filter-name>
  <url-pattern>/Products/*</url-pattern>
 </filter-mapping>

<filter-mapping>
  <filter-name>ProductsFilter</filter-name>
  <url-pattern>/en/Products/*</url-pattern>
 </filter-mapping>

 <filter-mapping>
  <filter-name>ProductsFilter</filter-name>
  <url-pattern>/de/Products/*</url-pattern>
 </filter-mapping>

 <filter-mapping>
  <filter-name>ProductsFilter</filter-name>
  <url-pattern>/fr/Products/*</url-pattern>
 </filter-mapping>

 <filter-mapping>
  <filter-name>ProductsFilter</filter-name>
  <url-pattern>/es/Products/*</url-pattern>
 </filter-mapping>

---------------------->8--------------------------

Using */Products/* doesn't necessarily do it (and I think wouldn't work anyway) since 
it would also collect match /SomeFolder/Another/Products which would be incorrect.

I don't mind using the above excep that it gets messy with multiple filters, and I was 
wondering if it could be more efficient for Tomcat written some other way.

Thanks,

Stephen.
