Don't worry. It was a reasonable assumption. And not a bad way to troll 
the list ;-)

Why?
If the proxy is standards compliant, it shouldn't matter, and if it's 
not... it could be doing anything.

http://www.seofaststart.com/blog/google-proxy-hacking is interesting but asking a not-cached version wouldn't fix that. Even worse, due to its distributed design, the workarounds can't be applied to grub.

You state there that clients must extract the urls and upload them as 
sitemaps.
I thought the server already auto-feedbacks, and the sitemap thing was 
just for people wanting to add urls.
