As a starting point, I offer "edgeproxy", which is the HTTP proxy that I
wrote (i.e., derived from one of the Perl Cookbook examples) in order to
address the needs of Blossom (HTTP Host field substitution, also munging tags
like A and IMG).  It is not much, and it only deals with GET and POST
requests at present, but it might be worth a look.
