1) I see no changelog entry for this new feature.

Bugzilla reference:
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57251#c31


2) A user is asking that this feature is mentioned in Tomcat 7 docs,
as if it is already working
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/deployer-howto.html#post_3798

[quote]
>From the "Deployment on Tomcat startup" section: "2. Exploded web
applications not referenced by any Context Descriptor will then be
deployed. >>If they have an associated .WAR file in the appBase and it
is newer than the exploded web application, the exploded directory
will be removed and the webapp will be redeployed from the .WAR<< "
[/quote]

Tomcat 6 docs also has that phrase.

For Tomcat 6 the way to go is to fix the docs.
For Tomcat 7 there is a chance to backport this feature.

> Note: Tomcat does this by adding a META-INF/war-tracking file to the expanded diretcory and setting the last modified time of this file to the last modified time of the WAR.
