With the dropping of level caps in CoP areas, a lot of content has become suddenly soloable. I'd call it a safe bet that everything 50-cap or lower can be solo'd, and a skilled player could possibly solo the airship and Tenzen fights. The past couple nights, I've run around completing some content that I hadn't gotten around to. I don't think I've seen that many people in Riverne and the Sacrarium since 2006.
Anyway, here's an attempt to summarize CoP content that can now be solo'd (or low-manned). Feel free to add your own experiences.
(See the individual posts in the thread for details.)

Quests
Go! Go! Gobmuffin (Map of Riverne)
- Solo'd this as SMN75 with Diabolos. Other jobs have reported being able to solo.
Brygid the Stylist Returns
- Subligar-dropping fomors are now soloable at 75.
Tuning In
- Tauri that drop Spruce Lumber are now more easily soloable at 75.
Paradise, Salvation, and Maps (Sacrarium Map)
- Key-dropping mobs can now be solo'd; chest can be found without aggro.
- A second person may be needed if the chest spawns behind the door that requires two keys to open.
Spice Gals
- This quest can now be completed at 75 without aggro. Firedrakes can be easily solo'd for the needed Dragon Scales.
The Search for Goldmane
- The Riverne portion of this quest can now be solo'd.
Other Content
Map of the Aqueducts
- with no aggro mobs, locating the ??? to obtain the map was beyond trivial. The "hardest" part now is farming the bronze key(s) to get to the libraries.
Swift Belt
- The taur that drops the Fomor Codex can be solo'd at 75. My group of 3 took down Balor in less than a minute, and I saw another person solo Indich. It's probably a safe assumption that most 75 jobs could solo any of the Swift Belt NMs.
- Luaith solo'd by 75 BST/WHM.
- Balor easily solo'd as both DRG and BLU/
Soboro Sukehiro
- Unstable Cluster is soloable by some (all?) jobs; low-mannable by others.
Promyvion Maps
- Solo'd mini-quest for maps of Holla, Dem, and Mea as SMN 75. Memory Receptacles die to a single Predator Claws, and Strays die in a single hit. The mobs that drop memospheres can be easily solo'd. Occasionally, the map ??? may pop behind IT mobs.
Carmine Dobsonflies
- One person reported killing 5 of the mobs solo.
Elel
- Duo'd by 75BLM/WHM and 75WAR/NIN.
Promyvion-Vahzl Map
- "Easily soloed the NM in Promyvion - Dem (Satiator) as well as the one in Vahzl popped with its item, Provoker. Also easily got the map in Vahzl since those NMs drop memospheres all the time."
