That is, they understand Expect: 100-continue, and reply with 100 Continue when asked for it. However, the containers do not let the servlets have a say (inspecting the request, and potentially saying "417 Expectation Failed"). This is a restriction that has been known for a long time, and I certainly hope the Java Servlet EG will address that at some point of time (I haven't checked recently, so maybe they already did and I missed it).
