--- Comment #15 from Christopher Schultz <ch...@christopherschultz.net> ---
+1 for increasing the URL length limit for proxy targets.

I ran into this recently with an https:// proxy where the hostname was long,
causing the URLs to exceed this limit. Using the IP address was not possible
because the HTTPS connection refused to handshake because of a mismatched
hostname (IP != cert hostname).

The workaround in my case was to use ProxyPassMatch which is non-ideal as it
adds a regular expression evaluation (multiple, since I have many
ProxyPassMatch directives) to every request, plus I can't be as specific as I
need to when mapping certain URLs and not others.

I would normally use mod_jk, but the client required the use of HTTPS between
the reverse proxy and application server (Tomcat, in this case).
