Ah, I think I misread your suggestion...

Having support for clean extension modules where appropriate would be a fine thing for Tomcat.

[For instance, the ability to easily replace the form-based authentication mechanism so as to be transparently compatible with basic authentication while still supporting session-based authentication -- all in the same web app...]

It's not about cloning Geronimo, but allowing tomcat to get more and
more modules and extensions, like does Apache HTTPD

If we do that, what doesn't make it a Geronimo clone ? The services that
are shipped by default, maybe ? ;)

It also most likely make Tomcat more heavyweight, although I don't know
whether or not it would make it more difficult to integrate.
