Using an external acl performs a lot better than an url rewriter..

url rewriters are called on each and every request to Squid, while
external acl helpers is only called  once for each unique combination
seen per the external_acl_type combination.. (i.e. cookie if using
cookies).

There is none to ask for. It's by design in NAT/PAT gateways..
