I don't know why it didn't occur to me before, but there is one more option we could consider. We could also write a patch for the docker client to allow a path other than /v2/ to be specified during a Docker pull. Of course, this patch may also be difficult to get accepted upstream, but if we could get it accepted upstream it might make negotiation with mirror admins easier. The docker client will still look for the header that declares the other end to be a v2 registry though, so mirror admins would still need to make sure that header is sent with requests in the Docker path.
