I'll admit by cold-addled brain isn't following logic perfectly this  
morning, but I feel like this really would be better handled by the  
upstream HTTP handler giving enough information to your app so it  
serves the right cached file (or runs the right controller, or  
whatever).

I think passing the Host: header along with the request_routing  
plugin (assuming you're on Rails) will make everything happy:

Or am I missing something?
