That doesn't justify using cryptic constructs in configuration files. I am 
happy to accept a limitation like forbidden space (or whatever separator) in 
the installation directory if that means that we don't have to use this cryptic 
syntax in the configuration file.

As you know the objective of this patch was to allow deployment of applications 
to directories outside /usr/share/ovirt-engine, something like 
/usr/share/ovirt-engine-userportal.war, with the objective of being able to 
install them without the rest of the ovirt-engine stuff. In that context 
introducing that additional "wars" directory is useless.

In addition wars can't be moved to a different place (wars directory or 
whatever) without the rest of the changes intended to extract them from the ear 
(unless you want to use more symlinks).

And finally I don't see any benefit on that additional wars category as 
applications will then be spread over different directories: web application 
.war files in /usr/share/ovirt-engine/wars and ejb application .jar files in 
/usr/share/ovirt-engine. If you really feel the need to make a new directory 
make one for all the applications, as all of them have the same treatment for 
both the startup script and the application server.
