Comment:
I've moved this to the Future_Protocols wiki page, we don't track change
requests with tickets, only bugs.
I read the document quickly and that should be doable. I wonder how big a
securityhole it is that you can connect to the backend and claim to be a
proxy this way. Apart from the obvious spoofing, what if the backend takes
use of this proxy protocol to mean that HTTPS was used ?
