I'm taking a look, Sean. It looks very promising, but I do have a
couple of questions. First, we weren't using Rewrite, but rather
ProxyPass to set up the front-end server. That is, we have:

  ProxyPass        /neworders http://client.example.com
  ProxyPassReverse /neworders http://client.example.com

but your app expects this approach:

  RewriteRule ^/neworders(.*) http://client.example.com/orders$1
[L,P,E=originalUri:%{REQUEST_URI}]
  RequestHeader append X_FORWARDED_URI %{originalUri}e

In theory I ought to be able to add something like

  RequestHeader append X_FORWARDED_URI %{originalUri}e

to the ProxyPass code above, but I haven't yet figured out how to
stuff the server variable REQUEST_URI into the originalUri directive
without using Rewrite (unfortunately it doesn't look like there's a
way to reference REQUEST_URI directly in RequestHeader). Any idea how
to do this?

I'm trying it your way at the moment, but it's introduced two problems
that I wasn't having before. First, my image links (e.g.
http://my.domain.com/myapp/image_assets/0000/0001/_thumb.jpg) aren't
resolving. Second, I'm getting a redirect loop on SSL requests that
makes me think that the ssl_requirement plugin may not be entirely
happy. I'll report back if I learn more, but I'd appreciate any
suggestions you might have.

Thanks,

-Sven
