Plus, the regular expression doesn't do what he wants it to do; at

double-quote symbol before "android" or after "webos" in the
User-Agent string.

I think he was saying that some proof that Tomcat is in fact reading
the rewrite configuration file is that, when the file has an error in
it, Tomcat will throw errors on startup.
