The only reson, it could be: fine grained security.
In Apache server you can specify which url are forwarder to Tomcat, and which 
are not.
If you make Tomcat publicly available all yours applications are accessible for 
everyone and you must configure all of them to use some security domains 
(JAAS,etc), by default they aren't configured. 
Can you imagine what would happend if somebody will have access to jmx-console?
I takes a minute to shutdown JBoss remotly.
