I guess what Nick is talking about is the body of a redirect response.
A redirect response is often accompanied by a small HTML page that also
contains the redirect target as a hyperlink in the case that your client
does not understand the Location header. While ProxyPassReverse takes care
of adjusting the Location header nobody takes care of adjusting the HTML
body of the response with the wrong link. This could be fixed by an 
ErrorDocument
for 30x response codes. IMHO only in a static matter.

OK, that makes sense - I can see a usage for that. Though if that was what I was trying to achieve, I still wouldn't want it removing all my other headers (which is what happens as a result of going through the ErrorDocument processing) - so ProxyErrorOverride/ErrorDocument still seems like the wrong tool for the job. A module with an output filter that modifies the URLs within the body for redirect responses would be a better option (maybe as part of mod_prox_http).

Cheers
