Adding of new information. Now especially the detailed information about how
mod_rewrite internally works which is written down here for better
understanding of the directive documentation. I've also painted two initial
figures to illustrate this better which are added to htdocs/manual/images/.
(Phase 2 will be error correction and markup code cleanup)

constructs, thus no one noticed that it can be used to lookup the REMOTE_USER
variable (one of the mod_rewrite FAQs) even in per-server context. One just
has to use %{LA-U:REMOTE_USER} instead of %{REMOTE_USER} there. Notice that
%{REMOTE_USER} is also useful, but only for per-dir context.

Unix derivates who doesn't accept the locking of pipes directly.
But we perhaps have another problem: According to FreeBSD's manpage and a hint
by the submitter of PR#1029 flock() has to be used on opened filedescriptors
which are _not_ duplicated via fork(). This currently is not the case...

be used as a Reverse Proxy (where the backend servers are choosen via a `rnd'
map) and to allow mass virtual hosting without <VirtualHost> sections (where
you have to fix the case of server names when translating the Host-Header to a
directory structure).
Together with the comitted ProxyPassReverse directive we now have solved
two things the users have asked in the past:
1. The ability to use Apache as a full-featured Reverse Proxy
2. The ability to do mass virtual hosting without <VirtualHost> sections.
For both topics we should write stand-alone documents (perhaps inside
htdocs/manual/misc/) because they are not trivial to do, even when we now have
the functionality ;-)

to do this for months.. no-one need try to maintain this when

First the grouped parts of RewriteRule pattern matches (parenthesis!) can be
accessed now via backreferences $1..$9 in RewriteConds test-against strings in
addition to RewriteRules subst string. Second the grouped parts of RewriteCond
pattern matches (parenthesis!) can be accessed now via backreferences %1..%9
both in following RewriteCond test-against strings and RewriteRules subst
string. This provides maximum flexibility through the use of backreferences.
Additionally the rewriting engine was cleaned up by putting common code to the
new expand_backrefs_inbuffer() function.

Small addition to the new_features_1_3 page. Plenty of
cleanup still to come..
