Is anyone working on making the web.xml file optional?

From http://weblogs.java.net/blog/gmurray71/archive/2006/02/
servlets_update.html
So what big changes were made in Servlet 2.5?
* ServletContext.getContextPath() - Ever wonder what the context
root was for your web application? This API is a long need addition.
* Annotations - Added annotations for Java persistence, web
service, declaring roles, run as, and EJBs. We did not add
annotations for decarling servlets, filters, and listeners in this
release though this will be a topic of discussion in the next servlet
release.
* Resource Injection - Resource injection is a way of injecting
references of container managed resources such as data sources,
environment entries, or web services into container managed
components such as servlets, filters and listeners. Support for
resource injection was added for Java Enterprise Edition containers.
* web.xml Changes- Removed the need to have a web.xml in web
applications without servlets, filters or listeners. Some
conveniences for declaring components in the web.xml were added.

Not sure. If you're saying there are no annotations for this, then I
assume this would works only with wars w/o servlets. I can dig into
it some more. I'm kind of surprised, the whole time i just assumed
there was support for annotating servlets.

How do you declare the servlets and the servlet mappings? Or does
this only work with wars that don't have servlets?

Actually, according to the specification:
"Starting with version 5 of the Java EE platform, a web application
module, an enterprise bean module, or an application client module
need not contain a deployment descriptor"

I don't think the web.xml is optional. I am not aware of any
annotations to declare servlets and their mappings to URLs.
Actually, there don't seem to be any annotations in the
javax.servlet.* packages.
