IIRC, if you rename your web-app to "ROOT" then the container will treat it
special. I've used this in Tomcat, but I fiddled around with it before I got
into Struts. I can't say for sure, but I would assume that if your web-app
is called "ROOT" then Struts would treat it special as well. 

Since those days, I've really quit caring about the web-app name. When there
is a customer requirement, I will spend more time trying to use some Apache
tricks to make it happen. Using Apache and mod_proxy (to connect to an
instance of tomcat somewhere else) or mod_jk (or whatever is in place these
days) is usually easier for me.
