what I do care is that users can very easily get started and verify they are on the right

Getting a page verifying the server is working/running would be a great help here.
Not only for usability/gettingstarted concerns but also to have some
"identfiication"/branding of AS 7 so
you and everyone else know what they are seeing/using.
btw. the error reporting/behavior is different when you visit the management, the web
root or a deployed context -
would be nice to at least have them be somewhat consistent.
So we need to add a welcome.war in deployments then (no need to name it
ROOT.war IMO).

Because noone knows where the management one is at.
First link on the default page should be the management - just like it was in previous
versions (and no, that isn't just a habit, its what makes sense :)
Port 8080 does not mean anything, it's just the Tomcat default.
