i got a web.xml with about 1090 lines. on top, at the opening root element (web-app) there's an error marker saying

The content of element type "web-app" must match "(icon?,display-name?,description?,distributable?,context-param*,filter*,filter-mapping*,listener*,servlet*,servlet-mapping*,session-config?,mime-mapping*,welcome-file-list?,error-page*,taglib*,resource-env-ref*,resource-ref*,security-constraint*,login-config?,security-role*,env-entry*,ejb-ref*,ejb-local-ref*)".

nice to know, but with 1000+ lines it is rather tedious to check for the actual error.
there should be a more specific error marker, making it easy to catch the error.

Reproducible: Always
