Re: pluto portal as ROOT app in Tomcat

I'm working on integrating pluto 2 and I think this may be a bug.

If you look at PortletContextManager:114 it does

String contextPath servletContext.getContextPath();
String applicationName = contextPath.substring(1);

Well for a root webapp contextPath would be "".

I've been meaning to verify this and file a bug but family matters have 
me otherwise occupied. I haven't had time to see what an actual solution 
to this would be. That said I'm guessing the easy fix is to move back to 
the pluto 1.1 approach of having portlet app names start with / for 
everything other than the root context and avoid any un-needed string 
manipulation.
