Jan,
This looks good to me.
I have patches ready to go for TC4 and TC5. They are based on the
existing code but implement the spirit of Bill's proposed solution and
add handling for crossContext.
I'll give people a little longer in case they want to add to this
discussion and then I'll commit them.

I've rewritten the javadocs of getContext(), as follows:

public ServletContext getContext(String uripath);
If we all agree, I will send this proposal to the Servlet EG.
Thanks,
Jan
