1. Tomcat version =?
2. Looking at docs,
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/context.html#Environment%20Entries
I do not see factory as an allowed attribute for environment entries.
3. Do you have control over code that uses the value?
4. Listeners are OK. I wonder though whether JNDI is modifiable or
read-only at that point in time. If it works for you, then it is has
to be modifiable.
