Java application servers like WebSphere and WebLogic provide Apache modules like this. I don't know how to address the "why", I just want to remove the special treatment for mod_proxy / r->proxyreq and only set a Date if one wasn't provided by the handler. The user I was working with didn't fully understand how how his software re-used the value in the Date header as sent in the handler.
