So I guess you want to pass REMOTE_USER from the proxy to the origin
server. Something like this might work:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{LA-U:REMOTE_USER} (.+)
RewriteRule . - [E=RU:%1]
Header add X-Forwarded-User %{RU}e
(Ouch, that's complicated. And I'm not sure it will work; depends on
the order of hook processing.)
