One thing that I find confusing is if the whole HttpService is supposed
to be one big webapp.

There's an existing VFSDirContext implementation. The overlays (which
are defined in WarMetaData) are straight VirtualFile objects and are
using it, so it should work fine for you.

What should be added then is a "parent" DirContext to handle the aliases
if everything is supposed to go in a single webapp.
