flags to skip config.ru or GemFile

[GoogleCodeExporter]

With the Rails setup, we need to get rails gems, then generate the files 
before we can populate the final config.ru (or if fails), but we get errors.

Similar issue with the Gemfile, we may want to be able to run appcfg.rb
without attempting to generate a Gemfile (when missing) or running bundler.

appcfg.rb bundle --update .  # no need for config.ru

appcfg.rb run bin/rails .  # no need to generate missing Genfile and bundle

When I start dev_appserver.rb, WEB-INF/web.xml was overwriten too.
I added servlet, filter, etc... but I lost these.

there is a way to add servler filters manually
http://fiddle-sticks.appspot.com/  # example

map '/info' do
  run JavaServlet.new('com.example.Info')
end

map '/admin' do
  use JavaServletFilter, 'com.example.AdminFilter', :wildcard => true
  run JavaServlet.new('com.example.AdminServlet', :wildcard => true)
end

map '/store' do
  use JavaServletFilter, 'com.example.StoreFilter', :name => 'StoreFilter'
  run JavaServlet.new('com.example.StoreServlet', :name => 'store')
end

thanks, now I use this.

But anyone need to use security-constraint or other...
And web.xml does not have rack overhead. (it may very small.)

If I can write web.xml,
Can I create "lazy loading jruby/rails rack servlet" ?
When spining up, this servlet returns redirect response.
If loading is complete, requests is send to rack, jruby, rails,...
To do this, we need divide loading processes into many peaces.
