Hi,

Sadly currently Tomcat startup relies on shell script to bootstrap JVM process.

In the light of distroless images (e.g. 
https://blog.chainguard.dev/introducing-apko-bringing-distroless-nirvana-to-alpine-linux/)
 what are you thoughts on packaging tomcat in distroless base OCI images that 
doesn't even contain any shell anymore?

Would it be possible to provide an alternative start mechanism which directly 
starts JVM process which setup/prepare env like the current catalina.sh shell 
script does?

What are your thoughts on above topic?

Mfg
Thomas
