Apache 2 + mod_jk2 404 handling

[Nerius Landys]

I have set up httpd-2.0.46 under Linux to pass off .jsp requests to the 
mod_jk2 handler (mod_jk 2.0.4).  Everything works fine.  My static .html 
and .jsp files 
happen to lie in the SAME webroot directory, so what I'd like to do is 
tell Apache to only pass off the .jsp request to mod_jk2 if the .jsp file 
being asked for exists.  One of the reasons I want this is for Apache to 
spit back Apache-configured 404 messages instead of spitting back 
Tomcat-produced 404 messages when requests for non-existant .jsp URLs are 
invoked.

In a nutshell, my httpd.conf and workers2.properties files look like this:
++ httpd.conf ++
================
LoadModule jk2_module modules/mod_jk2.so
# All files, .html and .jsp, are here
DocumentRoot "/opt/web/root"
<Location "/*.jsp">
    JkUriSet atrask ajp13:localhost:8009
</Location>
================
++ workers2.properties ++
=========================
[channel.socket:localhost:8009]
atrask=localhost:8009
=========================
Like I said, everything is working very swell except for a few quirks 
caused by the fact that .jsp requests are sent off to Tomcat directly 
instead of being "sanity-checked" for actual existance.  I've spend many 
hours digging through docs (which there is a lack of) and trying various
tricks.  If there were a directive called 
"Check-file-exists-before-sending-to-mod_jk2" that I could insert in the 
<Location /> directive I'd be all set.  Or at lesat is there a way for 
Apache to interpret Tomcat 5's error responses and make its own error 
responses?
