Because this is Red Hat administration 101 and all the system daemons are managed this way (mtas, httpd servers, etc). In fact it's not even Red Hat specific because this kind of initialisation script is standardised at the LSB level. There is absolutely nothing special about tomcat behaving like the rest of the system. I doubt all the other daemons have a readme explaining this either. _HOWEVER_ should you feel like improving the packages documentation (or other) patches are accepted at least on jpackage-discuss@xxxxxxxx and https://www.jpackage.org/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi?product=tomcat5 from where they'll eventually be merged in the fedora packages (it'll work the other way too, the merge is done both ways).
