Interesting, this definitely positions them as a competitor to CloudFlare. But the CDN-as-full-proxy has some distinct disadvantages: every POST to CloudFront will have to make an extra round-trip to retrieve the data before returning to the user. We ditched CloudFlare because of this -- simple requests would take 500ms longer via CloudFlare. Presumably CloudFront will run into the same issues...
