Not sure if you can re-locate this, but have you considered giving
read-only access to that directory for the Tomcat euid and allowing only
admins to write? That seems more straightforward than re-locating
everything.

Note that relocating everything means that when posting your users post
questions to this mailing list we're likely to say "who's the idiot that
scattered all the directories all over the place? try downloading a
fresh version of Tomcat and see if all your problems go away?".
