Thanks again Chuck. 

I'm dealing with one application deployed in 3 different environments
(develop,test,live). So it's definitely an advantage to modify the env
entries without updating the war file. So if it's not bad practice I want to
keep the env entries in the localhost/myapp.xml file ONLY. I just wanted to
make sure there wasn't some other reason why it would be a bad idea to
remove them from web.xml.
