From a cursory examination of the Metro doc, it looks like they tried to be 
lazy and recommended dumping all their classes into a shared directory, rather 
than do it properly.  Pretty sloppy, I think.

The webapp's WEB-INF/lib directory would certainly be much more appropriate, 
unless there's something going on under the covers that requires some level of 
sharing across webapps.
