Craig summed it up well in his e-mail. The attribute change listeners are explicitly required by the proposed servlet 2.4 spec. I need to modify the ServletRequest instance which happens to be present in Coyote.
Both Costin and Remy brought up issues related to as well as good solutions to branching. I like Remy's idea of creating a Tomcat 5 adapter which would be consistent with the Tomcat 3 & 4 adapters. (The javax.servlet API changes I made to jakarta-servletapi-5 will not affect whether Coyote builds or not. These are additions with no modification to the existing API's. I submitted a patch for these additions a couple of days ago but since there's no implementation you won't see any changes to the behavior.)
