While doing a grammar review of the mod_proxy documentation,
I came across the following excerpt in the ProxyPassReverse Directive section:

Note that this |ProxyPassReverse| directive can also be used in conjunction with the proxy pass-through feature (|RewriteRule ... [P]|) from |mod_rewrite <http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/mod/mod_rewrite.html>| because it doesn't depend on a corresponding |ProxyPass <http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/mod/mod_proxy.html#proxypass>| directive.

- http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/mod/mod_proxy.html#proxypassreverse
- http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/mod/mod_rewrite.html#rewriterule

But the RewriteRule documentation includes the following two table entries:

- proxy|P: Force the substitution URL to be internally sent as a proxy request. - passthrough|PT: Forces the resulting URI to be passed back to the URL mapping engine for processing of other URI-to-filename translators, such as |Alias| or |Redirect|.

So does the RewriteRule example in the ProxyPassReverse documentation need to be changed to [PT], or is the [P] correct and the description (the proxy pass-through feature) needs to be worded differently?

Also, I see dictionary entries for "passthrough" as well as "pass-through" and "pass through".
Which of these is the best for our purpose?

Thanks,
