Can authentication to webapps be controlled by Apache HTTPD serve r rather than tomcat?

I've asked that question a number of time before with no real response from 
the Tomcat developers except for Ignacio Ortega saying that he would look 
into it.  That was a while ago and I have seen any changes since then.

So, Tomcat developers.  Why does tomcatAuthentication="false" no work with 
Coyote?  Is there some other parameter that needs to be used instead of 
this now?  If nothing is yet implemented for this, when will it be?

Do you have any reason as to why it works with the ajp13 connector but not
coyote.  I would prefer to use coyote for the Mbean stuff.

Yes, but you have to add tomcatAuthentication="false" to your ajp13 
connector in server.xml.  Also, this doesn't seem to work with the Coyote 
connector, only with the normal ajp13. connector.

Once you've done this, do your athentication through Apache and use 
request.getRemoteUser() to get the name of the user who successfully logged 
in through Apache.
