Re: Patch for nginx handling of X-Accel-Redirect URLs

But this will basically duplicate ngx_http_parse_complex_uri's functionality in parse_unsafe_uri (at least part of it). Maybe just try to make it less "specific"? Why not have a single function for URI parsing?

I don't think that swap with ngx_http_parse_complex_uri() is a
good idea. It's very specialized function to parse original
request uri, and in particular it modifies many private request
fields which shouldn't be modified by proxy.

I would rather like to see ngx_http_parse_unsafe_uri() changes
done right (i.e. unescape only uri, but not query string, and
preserve checks currently done).

Note that among standard modules the change of
ngx_http_parse_unsafe_uri() will also affect dav and ssi modules.
I think that in both cases effect will be similar to one with
X-Accel-Redirect, i.e. positive (though I haven't checked too
deep).
