- server-side HTTP keepalive
- POST parameter extraction
- return-html code xxx [ file "xxx" | text "xxx" ] if <acl>
- avg connect time, response time, connect errors, response errors in stats
- return-raw [ file "xxx" | text "xxx" ] if <acl>
- add support for client-side and server-side unix sockets
- have multi-criteria analysers which subscribe to req flags, rsp flags, and
stream interface changes. This would result in a single analyser to wait
for the end of data transfer in HTTP.
- try to remove srv==NULL internally and assign a dummy server to each backend
for dispatch, http_proxy and transparent modes.
- rename L4 acls as L6 ACLs when some content is involved
- add new L4 ACL checks immediately after accept, before even allocating the
buffers ("connection {accept|reject|delay|freeze} {if|unless}").
- implement support for "connection freeze" after accept. A list of frozen
connections should be maintained so that it is possible to recycle them
when new file descriptors are required.

- pattern conversion per prefixes. Eg: convert src IP to country.
- make new patterns available based on stickiness matching :
- number of entries in table for the matched pattern
- same after having increased the match counter
- add a last activity date for each server (req/resp) that will be
displayed in the stats. It will be useful with soft stop.
- add support for concurrency match in tables
- just like stickiness, but counted per session (or request), increased
- add the ability to only dump response errors to more easily detect
anomalies without being polluted with attacks in requests.
- add an error ID in captures to ease new error detection for scripts.
- automatically compute fullconn for backends : by default, set it to
10% of the sum of the maxconn of all unique frontends which reference
it via use_backend, default_backend or that are in the same listen.
- hash: rehash non-consistent hashes with chash() for more randomness.
- what to do with data after a POST and how to detect some data were
received when responding ? In theory we should read everything because
the TCP stack does not notify us that the FIN was acked. In practice,
reading just before closing should be enough. Right now we simply read
whatever comes after the POST.
- half-closed timeouts ?
- add a flag in logs to indicate keep-alive requests ?
- make it possible to condition a timeout on an ACL
- forwardfor/originalto except with IPv6
- have a callback function which would be called after a server is selected,
for header post-processing. That would be mainly used to remove then add
the server's name or cookie in a header so that the server knows it.
- remove lots of remaining Alert() calls or ensure that they forward to
send_log() after the fork.
DONE:
* rename L4 acls as L6 ACLs when some content is involved
* add new L4 ACL checks immediately after accept, before even allocating the
buffers ("connection {accept|reject|delay|freeze} {if|unless}").
* make new patterns available based on stickiness matching :
* number of entries in table for the matched pattern
* same after having increased the match counter
* add support for concurrency match in tables
* just like stickiness, but counted per session (or request), increased
on first match and decreased at end of request or connection. This
requires that the session has a list of matched terms that must be
released at the end.
* http_req_first ACL
* expirable cookies + "preserve"
* ECV, LDAPv3 & MySQL checks
* configurable check buffer size
* stats + ON/OFF
* halog: sort by URL
* "PROXY" protocol
1.6 (will probably change anyway) :
- wait on resource (mem, socket, server's conn, server's rate, ...)
