Just working on the body will not do it. A phase handler, 
basically what Apache offers with its "hooks" from what I can 
see, looks promising though.

I do want to avoid writing my on proxy-like module or modifying an 
existing one. I do understand this is a possibility, but the people
I am looking at this for will want to keep the functionality separate
from the actual proxying.

Thanks for the pointer to the phase handlers!
