> Currently the ContextForwardServlet must be deployed separately for each URL path to redirect.
> This does not work well for plugins, nor will it work well for a more fine-grained console composed of multiple optional bits of functionality.
> Instead, the ContextForwardServlet should listen on a single path (say, /portlet-resources) and then have a registration mechanism that lets you add sub-mappings dynamically (/portlet-resources/foo/* -> web app 1 and /portlet-resources/bar/* -> web app 2).  Presumably something where it has a collection of GBeans and each web app that wants to register some forward with the console deploys one or more instances of the web app.
