There was also some talk at some point of adding some kind of "policy
check" functionality - the ability to perform a secondary HTTP request
from VCL code, e.g. to check a user's credentials before serving a
cached document which requires authorization, rather than just passing
the entire request on to the backend.
Perlbal does this by having the first backend return a special
"reproxy" header that Perlbal then uses to do the request again to
another backend.
