ProxyRequests are off by default.
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_proxy.html#proxyrequests

Also very recommendable:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/sandbox/mod_allowmethods/
Allows you to easily specify a set of blocked methods -- most 
probably even in a <Proxy > block


Finally, as Granny Weatherwax tells us the most important thing about
magic is when _not_ to use it. The same is true of mod_rewrite.

Here's a couple of examples:

You should've read them in context. If the journal did not
put things into a context then it's a lousy one.
