Future of AJP might be OK?

My people now, digging a bit deeper, think that some options for AJP on Apache / Tomcat might remain viable:

https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-10.0-doc/config/ajp.html#Connector_Comparison
vs https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-10.1-doc/config/ajp.html#Connector_Comparison

Looks like the only connector mentioned explicitly in 10.0 that is dropped in 10.1 is the APR/native Connector.

In 10.1 “"The native connectors supported with this Tomcat release are:
    JK 1.2.x with any of the supported servers. See the JK docs for details.
    mod_proxy on Apache httpd 2.x (included by default in Apache HTTP Server 2.2), with AJP enabled: see the httpd docs for details.”

This could imply that AJP is supported by mod_jk and mod_proxy via the Nio connector classes, though NOT through the Native Connector (deprecated).
I wonder if these supported options would suffice for Shibboleth?

Thanks, - Carl
