This is correct for WEB-INF directories contained within a web application. It 
doesn't tell anything about directories outside of web applications!

In my case I have a CGI-application (running within IIS) for giving access to my 
CVS repository. In this repository is a WEB-INF directory (because I'm 
developing a web application :-). Nothing JK2 SHOULD be concerned about... but 
it does block the access.

Now I understand that it's very convinient not to have to remember to block the 
access to WEB-INF directories within your web applications, especially if you 
serve static content from IIS directly.

However JK2 should have an option to exclude some directories from this check - 
exactly for this case where I as the administrator know what I'm doing.
