Not sure if this fits your needs, but I've accomplished this by using a dummy jsp page that redirects to my 'real' index.xhtml file. Index.jsp as well as index.xhtml are in my root web directory.
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>
index.jsp
</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>

Subject: /faces/* servlet mapping and welcome files
Hey guys, quick question:
Does anyone have welcome files working successfully with the /faces/*
servlet mapping? I previously used a *.faces extension mapping, and had
welcome files working with a dummy index.faces file. But now I am
converting to facelets and followed the advice from the archives to get
them to coexist [1]. Now that I'm using /faces/* I have both facelets
and JSP working just fine together except my welcome-file doesn't work
(results in a blank page shown). I've tried different paths combinations
in the welcome-file-list, with no luck so far. Latest entry is pasted
below. Thanks for any tips!
<welcome-file-list>
<!-- OLD <welcome-file>pages/public/index.faces</welcome-file>-->
<welcome-file>faces/pages/public/index.xhtml</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
