It is possible to run tomcat with your userid. All you need is a stripped

I'm tinkering with Open For Business (http://www.ofbiz.org/) and I've
checked out the latest code from their Subversion repository. The startup
script runs a local copy of tomcat (v4, I think) for testing. I haven't
gotten it to work yet (I get "no host configured" when connecting to its
port) but that does suggest that this is the normal way to debug servlets
without being root.
