This was more my point that I didn't get across correctly. When apps fail due to weird proxy issues they are incredibly hard to figure out and almost impossible to QA correctly for without a huge budget. And if this causes it, sure the Rails programmer might know how to solve it once they actually realize why it's failing. The why is the harder part.
