DO NOT REPLY [Bug 45149] Provide cache purge as a normal handler usable through a configurable url

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45149

Thanks for the patch, but aren't you doing rather too much work here?

(1) Why wouldn't a normal subrequest serve for your fake_request?
(2) How about mod_request vs your process_post?  Hmmm, OK, I think that's a
limitation of mod_request rather than of your patch.

More importantly, you're touching private parts of mod_cache.  That's liable to
break at any time.  If you can't get what you need from the public API, that's
a subject that should be raised on the dev@ list.  As it stands, it's something
between a patch and a module.

Also more fundamental: what protocols does your module implement?  I'm not sure
what web caching protocols are relevant in the real world (e.g. compatibility
with squid would be a plus), but folks on dev@ might know better.
