This also came up on the Tomcat development mailing list. Here is a
snippet from that.

"Currently in WTP, Tomcat
servers default to separate catalina.base and catalina.home.
The problem is that you don't get to choose the location for
catalina.base as it is assigned by the plug-in.  In
WTP 2.0, you will be able to specify the catalina.base
location."

Which seems that if one can get at the config file or etc. It might be
possible for one to manually set that. Just not via any GUI provided by
or as part of the plugin.
