Thanks, that was it.It's in fact described at the bottom of 
https://guacamole.apache.org/doc/gug/event-listeners.html but your explanations 
are more cleare.

Hello,
I can't figure out how to make the simple extension describe here 
https://guacamole.apache.org/doc/gug/guacamole-ext.html , "Updating existing 
HTML", to work.

Tomcat is stopped, the war copied in the right place, Tomcat is started.I 
checked and the html file and the manifest are in the war.Still, nothing is 
displayed on the logon page.
What am I missing? How can I debug this?

There is a bit of a misunderstanding here about what an extension is. An 
extension does not need to be part of the guacamole-client build or source 
tree, nor will being part of the build have any effect on the .war, nor will 
the presence of a guac-manifest.json in the .war file have any impact on the 
webapp.
An extension is an independent .jar file that contains a guac-manifest.json. 
This is part of the point of extensions: they can be developed independently of 
the mainline source and installed without rebuilding the source.
To create an extension, you create a .jar file that follows the format 
described in the documentation:
https://guacamole.apache.org/doc/gug/guacamole-ext.html#ext-file-format

To install an extension, you copy the .jar produced into 
GUACAMOLE_HOME/extensions/ (typically "/etc/guacamole/extensions"), just as you 
would any of the standard extensions like the database support:
https://guacamole.apache.org/doc/gug/configuring-guacamole.html#guacamole-home

When the Guacamole webapp starts up, it will look through that directory for 
.jar files containing a guac-manifest.json and load those extensions.
An example is provided demonstrating the basics of the extension format and how 
HTML can be modified:
