What is the preferred method for loading jars that will ultimately sit
in CATALINA_BASE/shared/lib

It seems a bit perverse to manually copy them to the strange directory
inside .metadata/.plugins

The default is that "shared/lib" is relative to catalina.base, which is
why it would normally need to go under ".metadata/.plugins/...". You
could import the catalina.properties in your installation's "conf"
directory into the same folder containing your server.xml under the
Servers project in your workspace. You could modify the "shared.loader"
setting in this file to be what you want. The catalina.properties file
will get copied to the "tmp?/conf" directory under
".metadata/.plugins/..." when the server gets published.

Cheers,
Larry
