Summary

0002639: Allow host rewriting to be disabled in HttpProxyServlet

Description

We are attempting to use HttpProxyServlet to send traffic to a legacy backend server. This server uses virtual hosting, so traffic going to it must have a Host header sent in the request.

We set up the HttpProxyServlet to send traffic like the example in the documentation. However, whatever host or ip address is set in the <init host="blah"/> tag is the one that will be sent in the request to the backend server; the Host from the original request is rewritten. It would be great to be able to turn this off and pass the Host header from the original request unmolested.
