Feb 20, 2016 at 23:40 comment added LSpice Agreed; my proposed statement seemed so weak that it might have a chance to hold even in the hairy cases, but I don't know whether it actually does. Anyway, while this isn't the characteristic-free answer that I was looking for, the paper by Herpel and Stewart looks interesting. Thank you for the pointer!
Feb 19, 2016 at 0:31 comment added Jim Humphreys Sorry, I didn't type enough to exhibit the link to arXiv. (This article refers back to needed work of Stewart on centralizers, too.) But note that "pretty good primes" allows for exceptions in type $A_n$ whenever $p|n$. This is always a tricky case for the structure theory.

Feb 18, 2016 at 23:55 comment added LSpice I can't seem to find the paper on MSN or the arXiv; do you have a reference? My impression from your description is that it is still imposing conditions (albeit mild ones) on primes; whereas I am looking for a statement that is true for all primes (probably at the cost of being significantly weaker).
