Interesting timing ... the code to do this (in Tomcat 4) was added just in the
last couple of days (after milestone 4).

If I recall correctly, it's actually sort of tricky to get this right. You
might want to check the source for the Tomcat 4 implementation for ideas -- I
believe it depends on the servlet container calling
Thread.setContextClassLoader() once you know which webapp you're running in.
This only works in a Java2 environment, though.
