welcome file list induced redirect is incorrect

           Summary: welcome file list induced redirect is incorrect
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.0.3 Final
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


The following request:

GET /foo HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost

given to a WebApp named foo that forwards all requests unchanged to another
WebApp named bar results in:

HTTP/1.1 302 Moved Temporarily
Content-Type: text/html
Date: Sat, 01 Jun 2002 04:23:38 GMT
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Location: http://localhost:8180/bar/index.jsp
Server: Apache Tomcat/4.0.3 (HTTP/1.1 Connector)

1 - Note the location is /bar.  But since the user requested /foo, this seems to
be violating the spec, since the spec says that the welcome file ( index.jsp )
should be added to the request.  It also breaks the encapsulation between webapps.

2 - Why is a temporary redirect being specified at all?  I don't see where the
spec says anything about a redirection, or anywhere it mentions that the browser
URL should be updated with the new location.

I'll fix these if someone confirms that these are indeed bugs.

The relevant code is in o.a.c.s.DefaultServlet.java
