We do really want this feature as well. We're now using ngx_proxy as a
non-blocking HTTP client for our ngx_lua applications (we also use
ngx_drizzle as the non-blocking mysql client and ngx_memc for the
memcached/tokyotyrant).

Our team will try implementing ngx_proxy_more or something like that
to include basic HTTP 1.1 (keepalive + chunked) support to ngx_proxy
in the first quarter of the next year if Igor does not do that himself
already.
