This is getting a bit much – how about X-Public-URI-Base and
letting the frontend pass the full base URI to the backend. That
would solve all the mentioned problems in one fell swoop and
might also address things that haven’t occured to anyone yet,
plus it’s much simpler than cobbling together the URI from 5
different headers.
