I don't think any solution should be confined to a context. As it stands,
contexts mean next to nothing application-wise. They're just subdirectories
off the site root. They way I'd expect (as does Luke) forward, redirect,
and include to work is:

URL = "/path/to/target" ---> absolute path to target, starting at site
root. i.e., "/" = site root and not file system root.
URL = "path/to/target" ---> relative path to target, starting at servlet's
directory.
URL == "../path/../../to/target" ---> relative path to target, normalized
automatically.

...Edmund.
