I checked out the spec section 8.4.2 Forwarded Request Parameters.
It does seem to me that it implies that the parameters is where one
would get the original URI from.
However, there are still 2 problems that I can see:
1) The API says: "URL the client used to make the request"
2) 8.4.2 says that these parameters are NOT to be set if you obtain
the RequestDispatcher object using getNamedDispatcher() method. How
would you get at the original URI/URL then (without custom coding)?
