This sounds to me like hand holding, which is something I don't do,
at least to a project that is not what I should be working on. ;-)

Second, it sounds like you didn't or aren't willing to do any investigation.
Which means I should do your homework.

If I say it's simple, I say it because it is, not to mislead you or show off.
As I know you previously did quite well with deployers,
I very much doubt that you're not able to trace down ServletContext's purpose in that code.

This is a different issue, just the opposite of what your initial post was about.
But that is something to be, unfortunately, addressed by the jbw/tomcat guys.
And if things go .tld way, we're in for a long waiting. ;-)

Your first post said you're fine with this.

And this is exactly how mc-int helps you.
You should provide a custom ServletContextListener (SCL),
which then uses MC-int to get proper underlying Kernel or DeploymentUnit.
Kernel --> Controller --> register or do lookup
(VFS)DeploymentUnit --> check resources or any attachments

Which object?

If you mean SCL, you could just add a deployer, 
that requires JBWMD + JBPortalMD --> add new SCL metadata to JBWMD

WebBeans deployers do something similar,
or do I need to draw this one down again ... sarc ... ;-)
