Ideally, you should be able to set mode specific proxies for easier development. For example,
# Development (debug) mode configuration when using local backend.
mode :local_debug do
proxy "/", :to => "localhost:3000"
end
# Development (debug) mode configuration when using remote backend.
mode :remote_debug do
proxy "/", :to => "myhost.com:8080", :secure => true
end
But this doesn't work, because all proxy directives are read and later directives override earlier directives.
