right-o.  it turns out that tomcat has something similar in the web.xml file:

<servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-name>
    jsp
  </servlet-name>
  <url-pattern>
    *.jsp
  </url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

and

<servlet-name>
  jsp
</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
  org.apache.jasper.runtime.JspServlet
</servlet-class>

thanks, for pointing this out.
