One question on this:  I think the folks who have spoken up about the solution below are running Tomcat 7, right?  Has anyone been successful with it under Tomcat 5.5 (and Sakai 2.8)?  I tried and couldn't get it to work, and I'd just like to get some confirmation that (as I suspect) you need a newer version of Tomcat for those settings to work.

Thanks,

All evidence is that our AJP config change (diff below) completely fixes our known Chrome 30 issues without any side effects for users of the various other browsers.
