The philosophy of the servlet spec is to have self-contained webapps, so 
plugins aren't really catered for.  (Might be something in the 3.0 spec, but I 
haven't really studied it yet.)

As an alternative to direct class calls, can you package the add-on as a 
separate context and reference it via forwarding or as a web service?
