   - 400 Always unsafe to continue since if you have a badly formatted request 
you can't tell where that request ends and the next one starts.
   - 408 Always unsafe to continue since the current request was not fully read
   - 411 Likely unsafe since the only reason for asking for a length is if you 
can't work it out. However, Tomcat never uses this status code so the point is 
moot.
   - 413 Unsafe since it is likely that the request will not be read fully
   - 414 Unsafe since it is likely that the request will not be read fully
   - 500 Unsafe since the request processing is in an unknown state
   - 503 Safe if, and only if, the request is fully read
   - 501 Safe if, and only if, the request is fully read
   
   If the change was limited to 501 and 503 and if it is confirmed that Tomcat 
reads the request fully in those cases (or there are changes to ensure that 
this is the case) then I'd be willing to reconsider my veto.
   
   I'd suggest, at this point, the OP's time would be better spent determining 
which status codes are triggering the observed connection closures and 
addressing the associated root cause(s).
