app.servlet.version should be removed

[John Fletcher-3]

We just upgraded to Grails 2.0 and spent some time working out the
difference between app.servlet.version in application.properties and
grails.servlet.version in BuildConfig.groovy. We ended up finding
http://burtbeckwith.com/blog/?p=1251 which states:

"Note that there is a legacy setting in application.properties with
the name app.servlet.version; you should delete this line from your
application.properties file since its value is ignored and overridden
at runtime by the value from BuildConfig.groovy."

Is this line really useless? If so, why is it still created in new
Grails 2.0 projects - should this not be removed from the template to
avoid confusing people?

Can you raise an issue? The same may apply to the app.context property too.

I already removed it from the scripts, changed for 2.2.
