Request for or as element inside
I have a large and growing number of requirements for aliases, and the
existing (new for Tomcat 7) aliases= attribute is unwieldy for me. The line
is already 289 characters long ;-(
It would be a lot more convenient if aliases could be specified individually
via a repeatable nested <Alias> entry, something like:
<Context>
<Alias aliasPath="/xyz" docBase="/real_path"/>
...
</Context>
Comments welcome.

For information of the list, this was first opened as a feature request:
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53359 but after
discussion the following was implemented instead and will be in 7.0.28:
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53373. Basically
whitespace is now allowed around the comma and the '=' in the attribute, so
e.g. newlines and whitespace can be used. This meets my requirement
entirely.

Don't use docBase though, that'll confuse matters.
