The referred clients use reverse proxy or forward proxy ?
Yeah, the more we talk about this issue, the more I think the existing Transfer-Ignore
and a new Ignore-Content-Type are bogus since there are still too many web servers
and CMS's that do things wrong. Both the "file extension" and the Content-Type is too
often wrong.
For RESPMOD, icapd uses content sniffing since when it blocks
an object it insists in sending new content with the correct Content-Type.
I came up with the original question since I try to optimize performance and
ignore irrelevant content by not sending it to the ICAP server.
I think we are stuck with processing all traffic without ignoring any content.
