OK :)

Same as before.

Depends on what you want. If you want mydomain.com/ to be your web application, 
that's fine, your webapp needs to be the root web application. If you want 
mydomain.com/mywebapp that's OK too. You don't need a redirect of any kind. 
This functionality is setup using Context element configuration more of which 
is in the online Tomcat documentation :)

Same answer, it's not "best" practice.

Same :)
