But still use container-provided connection pooling when the container classes 
are loaded by the common classloader.  This is what I was referring to when I 
said the webapp classloader would have to get its own copies of Tomcat classes. 
 Might be doable by extending the classpath of the webapp classloader to 
include some directory containing jars/classes that would be available to each 
webapp (eg, commons-dbcp or tomcat-dbcp) but still loaded by each webapp rather 
than some shared classloader.  Doesn't sound like too much work, but does 
introduce potential versioning complications.
