I assume that you don't actually need the UI thread but need to have
access the the session. If you really need the UI thread, options are
sparse.
In the latter case there are several ways to accomplish this:
* you may use an IServiceHandler instead of an extra servlet. That
provides you with a "context" which allows you to access
session-singletones etc. See JavaDoc, newsgroup, FAQ for further
information.
* you may put the information that needs to be shared among the
RWT-servlet and the charing-servlet in a session attribute. From RAP,
the http-session can be reached like this:
RWT.getSessionStore().getHttpSession().setAtribute()
