I don't have much more than what amounts to the summary/initial poking
around in the bugzillas.  I had the wiki thought too -- bullets there
are much easie than trying to reabsorb the PRs each time.

- examples need to account for php-fpm (how URLs and or paths are passed)
- fixes for CGI variables in different configurations (sethandler vs. proxypass)
-- fixup r->filename right before adding CGI vars, maybe directory walk
-- path info calculation probably needs multiple modes.  Maybe expr based?
- further doc for worker matching stuff with ProxySet
- provide a convenience/less verbose directive to configure SetHandler
+  a backend worker
-- doc SetHandler advantages
- change compile-time diag stuff to trace8
- need to port mod_proxy_http or mod_fcgid body spooling / content
length passing
- would be nice to have a non php-fpm fastcgi server to sanity check
with so we don't end up with too many php-fpm-isms
- figure out / make sure balancer examples work with php-fpm and/or setHandler
