I have come up with another idea, just in case anyone happens to be
interested.

The usage patterns of these applications together are such that the ROOT
web application is only used some of the time -- mostly, /foo is being
used. When the / application is used, it is used to completion, and then
the user goes back to /foo for the rest of their interactions with our
webapps. Returning to the / application is basically considered an
entirely new interaction, so any loss of the JSESSIONID from a previous
interactions is acceptable.

My solution is therefore to write a filter that kills any JSESSIONID
cookie with path="/" and install it on /foo. That should mitigate the
problem in the short term while I prepare to re-locate the ROOT webapp.
