Ron,

I think some people would say that

    GET <service>/<uri>  HTTP/1.0

is not valid HTTP. In fact, I think there are a number of current
products that offer (on the same port) both regular and proxy HTTP
support would be confused by something that half looks like a URL but
isn't really.

New services need new methods.
