If you treat Servlet forwarding as same as URL rewrite, then we should use

My previous comment was wrong. It is true only for the welcome file case. If
there is an actual servlet side forward, Tomcat does implement the
javax.servlet.forward.request_uri attribute. And my patch will change the
behavior. To me, it is a fix.
