Not that I'm aware of. Manual modification, though useful/necessary in
some circumstances, isn't officially supported.

This looks reasonable.

The context-root property specifies the context name the webapp should
be served as, i.e.
"http://somehost:someport/onlineReporting2/someresource...". That's all
it affects.

I'm not sure either. The lack of a value may mean default behavior
should be used. In any case, the WTP is smart enough to copy the build
artifacts for "/input/javasrc" and not the actual source for that
<wb-resource>.

No. The deploy-path must be the relative path within the webapp. The
location of the webapp will provided by the action you are executing,
such as publishing to a server or exporting to a WAR file. The extra
folders at the beginning of the deploy-path will just "break" things.

Jar files can be managed from the Java EE Module Dependencies page if
the project's Properties dialog, which is able to modify this file.
There are also special buildpath attributes that can appear in the
project's ".classpath" file that can mark a jar as one that needs to be
included or excluded from a webapp's WEB-INF/lib.

It's not clear what exactly "build for jboss and tomcat" is implying.
However, I'm not aware of a way to have what comprises the webapp (WTP
calls it a "module") in a Dynamic Web Project to be different depending
on a dynamic choice of server. What you might be able to accommodate
would depend on exactly what needed to be different.
