I would like to see this issue resolved as well. Meanwhile, alternatives include:
* [Cargo Maven2 Plugin|http://cargo.codehaus.org/Maven2+plugin] - [Merging WAR files|http://cargo.codehaus.org/Merging+WAR+files]
* [XML Maven Plugin|http://mojo.codehaus.org/xml-maven-plugin/] - [XSL Transformation|http://mojo.codehaus.org/xml-maven-plugin/examples/transform-basic.html]

> I'm looking for a way to use the war overlay feature and have the web.xml merged with the content of both the parent war and the child war. 
> For example, we have two wars A and B, and B is depending on A using the overlay feature. Now, I'd like all filters, servlets etc that are configured in A to be available in the resulting war, as well as all filters, servlets etc from B. If the id attributes clash, then the objects from B should be used.
> Any ideas how this could be accomplished?
