I tried this, and it should work correctly, except that that config
easily conflicts with the pageEncoding attribute on individual pages.
For example, if you configure the encoding to be "UTF-8" in web.xml,
and then also have pageEncoding="utf-8" in JSP headers, then glassfish
flips out because "UTF-8" != "utf-8" and thinks that they declare
different encodings. It is totally braindead and a bug in glassfish.
