You would have to register a listener and wait on it to be removed, 
probably in another thread so that you dont block one of the MSC service 
threads.

Then you would also need to, on undeploy kick off a thread to restart 
the welcome service immediately after the context was removed.

Another option, that would be somewhat easier, is that we could modify 
the service so that we can ask it to remove it's context, and restore it 
on undeploy. The deployment would then have optional dep on the welcome 
services for the vhosts it binds to.

Although the easiest would still be if MSC just did this for us.
