--- Comment #3 from Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org> ---
Of course. The URI normalization checks fail. And even if they didn't you can't
map the CONNECT request to a servlet.

This isn't possible to implement for a Servlet based web application.

With a CONNECT request, there is no URI so there is no ability to map a request
to a virtual host, web application and servlet.

It should be possible to implement this in Tomcat with a custom protocol
implementation.

I can't think of any good reason to write a forward proxy based on Tomcat.
Writing spec compliant, secure HTTP proxies is hard and there are already
implementations available such as httpd.
