SESConverter for CFMX7

Despite successfully configuring Fusium's SESConverter.cfm for CFMX7 Enterprise I still spun my wheels for an hour today blaming my apache installation for the failure.  To prevent future frustration I'm making a public note here in the hopes I find my answer next time.

First, find your web.xml file responsible for the server instance you are using, in my case 

C:\JRun4\servers\cfusion\cfusion-ear\cfusion-war\WEB-INF
and look for the section which reads:
<!--
      If your J2EE server supports it, you can uncomment these.
      They are included to support Search Engine Safe (SES) URL types.
      Some servers (Tomcat, SunONE) don't support wildcard mappings
      -->
Yes. I jumped to the fusium site first which doesn't mention the comment instead of scanning through the file myself to find the note on SES URL types.  So basically, remove the XML style comments <!-- --> from the mappings following the statement which map *.cfml/ *.cfm/* and *.cfc/* to the CfmServlet.
