I agree if you deploy jbpm and console as stand alone process engine, but what in \
case when there is application (user webapp) using jbpm and console is only for \
administration purpose and does not need to be running all the time? Then in my \
opinion web app should be the owner of the process engine and not the console. This \
is what I meant in my previous post.

I was thinking that it could be treated as configuration option (for example using \
JVM parameters) if ServletContext shall start and destroy process engine. In such \
case it won't be only Tomcat specific solution but could be used by any other J2EE \
application server. It will be probably used when running jbpm embedded in web \
application, once the web app is deployed console will use already created process \
engine.

This sounds really good. Looking forward to results of your investigation.
