tricky, but this is possible.

first you need to jail the apache and tomcat processes. regardless if 
you start them as root with jk_chrootlaunch or from a shell inside the 
chroot jail this is quite a bit of work already.

then you want your jailuser to start/stop them. that involves something 
like sudo in the jail, which can be done, but it requires a lot of 
dependencies in the jail before it will work.

success!
