    Description

      We should explore some possible enhancements:

      • see if it's possible to move the logic that is handled by EntryServlet to a filter. This could allow an easier configuration (see MagnoliaManagedFilter) and allow a direct access to some resources (i.e. remove stream servlet for resorces in the webapp dir, allowing the execution of jsp files)
      • configure servlets in the config repository: harder to implement, but it could be a great feature: having a single filter (like we have now) that could dispatch requests to servlet not mapped in web.xml but loaded by magnolia itself. This could lead to the removal of any need for web.xml modification and make magnolia webapps easier to configure (a single filter and that's all)
