This is basically a duplicate of Bug 54005.

As discussed there, the facility is not particularly useful as it requires the browser (or other client) to send the X-headers in order to get them returned without the X- prefix.

It would be better to implement the suggestion in Bug 54005 which is to add a table to the mirror server GUI with the headers it should return.

I'm finding it hard to imagine a use-case for the current implementation.
