I have no objection to it, provided that the security concerns are adequately described, but in that case it should not be published as an Informational RFC (since that is not standards track). Instead, it should be submitted to the WG for addition to HTTP/1.1 (assuming Larry agrees that it is appropriate to do so). BTW, it is also implemented in the Apache proxy, but I don't know if that implementation works correctly yet. ....Roy
