I want this too. This would be a custom connector. The thing about it is
that it's quite involved. The apache module itself has to be
custom-written and and the listener has to be customized to accept the
info passed to it and handle it properly.
I've researched this, and the AJP protocol in it's current form would
not support this. There's an AJP extension proposal that would include
the information needed to support it, but I can't find any tentative
plan to implement it. So... who knows when we'd be able to utilize that.
We need to make our own connector I think. That'd probably be better in
the long run anyway.

Seems like a reasonable explaination to me.
However, I'm not sure what governs the execution order of Apache
modules. I googled it a bit, and only found that Apache manages it
using
an "internal" process. great >.<
That'll sure help in trying to fine tune it. ;-)
You could try using mod_proxy instead of mod_jk and place your
mod_proxy
directives under your alias directives. Perhaps they will get executed
first?
Just a guess!
Actually I've thought about giving it a shot before, but haven't because
of performance worries.
Having now learned more about the way mod_jk and ajp actually work, I'm
starting to understand why AliasMatch doesn't work, and probably can't
work either. As AliasMatch does mapping to files, not URIs, and mod_jk
is basically just a proxy, aliasing doesn't have an effect on .cfm
templates.
So I guess what I'm looking for is another way of handing .cfm files in
Apache - something similar to BD Free's servlet-exec that just handles
all the files thrown at it without proxying. Is there a way to
accomplish this? Something that would just throw .cfm and .cfc files to
OpenBD for processing. Something that would allow me to keep all my
(tens, if not 100+) VirtualHosts in Apache configuration alone. The
outlook of configuring every single virtual host variation in both
Apache and server.xml is rather depressing to say the least, and feels
very Department of Redundancy Departmentish.
