Hmm, it looks like I spoke too soon, and didn't pay enough attention to what
you said. It does work fine for static resources, however I also need it to
work for servlets. Is this possible?

Actually, in pseudo-regex terms, I just want:
/app/([^/]*)/something
to become:
/app/something
and where the bit in brackets can be retrieved by the servlet 'something'.
