	Looks good. I just tested it with our setup and it works great. Any  
word on a setting for non-buffered file uploads when proxying to  
backends? This is the one feature I still really need that other  
webservers have but nginx does not yet.

	Is it possible for me to sponsor the development of a config option  
to turn off buffering of file uploads that need to get proxied to a  
backend instead of buffered by nginx?
