Looks like the following would work:
<uncomment path="/*[local-name()='web-app']/comment()[4]" />
or even
<uncomment path="/:web-app/comment()[4]" />
What i was missing initially was the ':' before the web-app root.
Now when i get the altered file output, it does add an empty xmlns="" to the
following:
<filter xmlns="">
<filter-name>authFilter</filter-name>
<filter-class>blah</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>springSecurityFilterChain</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
Not sure if it will cause an issue or not when it is deployed...
Thanks to all.

Subject: Re: [Xmltask-users] problem with using uncomment
Are you sure that uncomment() path is correct ? Remember that XPath
indexes from 1, not 0!
