I'm actively working on improving merging support in cargo for web.xml and the container specific .xml files; also to support plugging in strategies for merging other files that may be in your WARs (e.g. struts-config.xml and other application specific items).
Some of it is committed to cargo, some is waiting patches, some I have yet to submit - manly because cargo is getting ready for a 0.7 release and it is probably worthwhile to let that stabilise before adding a lot more new functionality. I've also adapted its maven2 plugin to configure the merging to happen as an 'uberwar' task. cargo-dev is the place to be as vincent says if you're interested in these things in cargo..
