Hello,
think I kind of know the setup of Sanket: he needs an external pipeline,
because a host needs to be matched.
@Sanket: you might add a "non-external-existing" host in your sites.xconf, and
use external pipeline. From the outside, nobody will be able to run this one,
right. Or, you do have a normal external pipeline, but you add the port number
your cocoon instance is running under, and you make sure this request cannot be
done from "outside"
