| Not if the requests are going to at least some forms of transparent
| proxy (such as the one the company Jerry and I both used to work for

| requests, as the client thinks it's talking to the origin server, not to
| a proxy.  (That's sort of what "transparent" implies, no?)
- ------------------
At least based on what I've seen, http:// and Referer http:// headers
came up consistently when using split proxy such as google web
accelerator. The outgoing request had a combination of http:// and
Referer http://.

Just making sure I'm not missing anything.
