> In AbstractFilter.java, someone took this from Tomcat:
>    /**
>     * Pattern matching code, adapted from Tomcat. This method checks to see if
>     * the specified path matches the specified pattern.
>     * 
>     * @param request ServletRequest The request containing the path
>     * @return boolean True if the path matches the pattern, false otherwise
>     */
>    public boolean isMappedToCurrentRequestPath(ServletRequest request)
> What we really need is url-pattern="{regex}". Drop the Tomcat pattern nonsense with the wildcards and use a regex. Probably needs to be backwards compatible now with an additional url-pattern-regex="{regex}" property. 
> Usecase: Filter /servlets/* AND  /Feed/*.
