Who's they?
Where and how exactly are you running this?

Re-reading this, this actually doesn't look like the hierarchy you described.
It's more of a delegation model, then actual parent-child hierarchy.

In MC's CL you could do this with simply configuring ContainerApp's jboss-classloading.xml to use BookingApp's module / packages.
Since in BaseClassLoaderDomain, we first try imports, before looking into local resources.

But why exactly do you need to change classloader before dispatch?
I must admit I don't see a valid reason, but it's true it's been a while since I did web apps ...
