The assumption that a particular webapp only has one context path -- or even one host:port combination -- is not in conformance with reality on most modern servers. Consider, for example, how many environments are set up such that "www.mycompany.com" and "company.com" resolve to the same webapp. The same sort of aliasing of the context path is trivially simple in any modern web server or app server. Application architectures based on the assumption that there is one-and-only-one URL for the app should be rethought.
