Here are my reasons:
0) I thought that there was a consensus on this list that having fproxy
dynamically modify html was a Very Bad Thing (tm) for several reasons.
e.g. it pisses of content authors, there are unforseen security/anonimity
implications.
1) Writing a real-time HTML parser that could handle such transformations
in a robust, secure way is hard. Knowing that your implementation is correct
is even harder...
The approach taken by the patch is really simple ( = robust and debuggable)
even if it is not as elegant.
Should I check it in?
