The RemoteIpValve is currently working as designed. It is designed to work with
'standard' web applications, not for an application that is acting as a reverse
proxy. In that case, you probably don't want the RemoteIpValve in the
processing chain at all.

If you want some of the functionality of the RemoteIpValve then you'll need to
implement your own valve.

An enhancement request - with a patch - will get considered but like all such
enhancement requests the complexity added will be weighed against the benefit
of the feature(s) it provides.
