This seems more flexible. Can it be done so as not to break ProxyPass not wrapped in a <location>? Is this not possible using mod_rewrite?

Hi. I was looking at this feature request, and was wondering if we should change the proxypass command to something like a 'Location' where can set multiple options

or if we should possibly make the ProxyPass sit in the location
it is r-proxying

eg.
<location /foo>
        ProxyPass  http://www.foo_bar/
</location>

That way we could add other settings for the paritcular r-proxy
like different Timeouts for different r-proxies

and we could make it easier for other people to customize r-proxy later
on (on a individual basis)

Release:        1.3.12
Organization:
apache
Environment:
RedHat Linux 6.2, kernel 2.2.19
Description:
We use an apache server in front of some other web servers, mostly for logging
in a uniform way. We use proxypass te pass on requests to the other web servers.
This assumes however that the other server has a different name than the apache
server:
<VirtualHost ..>
ServerName front.server.dom
ProxyPass / http://back.server.dom/
</VirtualHost>


For some purposes it would be convenient to do:

<VirtualHost ...>
    ServerName front.server.dom
    ProxyPass / http://front.server.dom/ back.server.dom
</VirtualHost>

This would allow the back.server.dom machine to have front.server.dom as a
virtual host as well.
How-To-Repeat:

Fix:
Please, add the suggested optional host parameter.
