Daniel Watford commented on OFBIZ-11800:
----------------------------------------

Hi [~pierresmits], I tried out the PR and saw that the accounting component correctly handled URLs without the control path element, however there is a problem that many other ofbiz components have built URLs to the accounting component which still include the control path element, breaking navigation.

Some examples:
 * The top-level navigation menu still includes /control/ in all links.
 * The order manager component has links from orders to invoices which include /control/
 ** Please see the link to the invoice at [https://localhost:8443/ordermgr/control/orderview?orderId=Demo1002]

Can you have the servlet mapping in web.xml forward requests matching /* and /control/* to the control servlet, but deprecate usage of /control/* and log that a link has been followed to a deprecated path? That way ofbiz should continue to be navigable while all components are gradually updated.
