+0.5 - I wonder if in some cases - it may be preferable to use a property called split which lets the user define the separator which we can pass to String.split(). [Which OTOH may be more confusing (yet powerful) since the user is using a regex to split get a list of regex]

There are a number of configuration properties defined as "comma

that is a little odd. It stops "," being used in an expression and is

Having just been bitten by this while setting up the new Jira instance,
I intend change all properties that take regex in Tomcat 7 to use a
single regex. This will simplify the code, simplify configuration and
make the regex processing faster.

I probably won't get around to actually doing this until the new year.
