well, this actually doesn't solve the problem, just bypass it...

Something like the init levels? and the update-j2ee-appserver-rc.d
selecting in which configuration to create the links to the deploy
dir... it would be nice...

Same as 1... doesn't solve the problem, just bypass (I know bypassing is
the easiest way of dealing with a problem:)

I don't know if this is necessary, and I don't have a clue of how to do
it... :)

exactly...

how to deal with tomcat is a good question, I use tomcat embedded in
jboss, which simpliflies a lot... do we need to ask to split tomcat into
tomcat-standalone and tomcat-embedded?

very important, since it's a pain to edit that file...
