I would like to suggest that context.xml files that are contained within

Copying the file META-INF/context.xml has never made much sense to me on
why that was necessary or logical, it seems as a WAR file is self
contained, and should remain so.
what ya say?
I'd be +1 for making the extraction of META-INF/context.xml optional
with a slight preference for the default behaviour to be consistent with
Tomcat 6.
I thought even 6 has been inconsistent, copy in one version and don't
copy in another?
or did I misunderstand that?
6.0.x was inconsistent between WARs and directories. That was made
consistent in 6.0.19.
META-INF/context.xml in WAR files always extracts/copies
META-INF/context.xml in a directory doesn't copy<6.0.19, does copy
6.0.19 onwards
Then I suggest making everything in TC 7 consistent with directories <6.0.19
That's the whole point, it creates nothing but confusion to move the
file out, since it remains there and results in a failed deployment if
you remove a WAR file/directory while the server is not running
