Does Tomcat now have caching of LDAP authentication (i.e. for basic
authentication)?
Does Tomcat allow a single web app (and URL therein) to be authenticated
against multiple LDAPs (i.e. where part of the user community is defined
by each)?
Is there a SiteMinder plug-in for Tomcat?
These sorts of things also currently drive folk to use Apache currently.

Can you give any specifics as to why you think running Tomcat in front
of Apache is bad?
1) Extra overhead.
2) Additional complexity.
3) Added points of failure.
Certainly if you have a need for capabilities not supported by Tomcat
(such as load balancing), then front-ending it with httpd is an
inexpensive way to go. (A hardware balancer should give you somewhat
better performance, but you may or may not need it.)
The old httpd vs. Tomcat performance difference for static content
simply isn't a factor anymore. Take a look at the study Peter Lin did:
http://tomcat.apache.org/articles/benchmark_summary.pdf
Note that this wasn't with the latest version of Tomcat, which has
improved a bit more.
