That's good to know. I have had significant problems using mod_proxy and tomcat with Apache 2.0. Basically it amounted to Tomcat using a weird character to indicate the start of URL parameters (something other than "?") and that was making mod_proxy choke. After switching to mod_jk, it all worked. Never was sure why tomcat was using the non-standard character in the urls. mod_proxy is cleaner and easier in many situations than mod_jk if it works.
