Open kngenie opened this issue 9 years ago • 0 comments

such as:

  • maintaining the form of URL (absolute, protocol-relative, server-relative, path-relative) - to make it less likely to break when manipulated by JavaScript.
  • changing protocol depending on X-Forwarded-Proto request header field - important for deployment with reverse-proxy.

These are very hard to implement with current framework.
