String resourcePath = context.findTaglib(taglibs[i]);

// a context-relative path starting with '/'?

As I added, I think it would be good to have absolutePathType in
j2ee_1_4.xsd so that we can take advantage of its constraint.
<xsd:complexType name="absolutePathType">
<xsd:annotation>
<xsd:documentation>
The elements that use this type designate an absolute path starting with a
"/".
</xsd:documentation>
</xsd:annotation>
<xsd:simpleContent>
<xsd:restriction base="j2ee:pathType">
<xsd:pattern value="/.*"/>
</xsd:restriction>
</xsd:simpleContent>
</xsd:complextType>
Actually this declaration is very similar to that of war-pathType in
web-app_2_4.xsd except their base types, j2ee:pathType and j2ee:string. If
we can use this type, it is also possible to type taglib-location or some
PATH-derived element by it and drive users to follow the notation of the
absolute path. In addition, the absolutePathType can help about the issue at
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=tomcat-dev&m=106456019300386&w=2 . At the
same time, I suggest PATH-derived element with
"(as a resource relative to the root of the web application)"
description should use absolutePathType for avoiding ambiguity.
