Note that this is a valid HTTP request, according to my reading of RFC2616.

Depends what you mean by valid. Yes it's a valid request to receive, no an implementation is not compliant with RFC2616 if it issues a request like this to an origin server. Have a look at section 5.1.2. An implementation is REQUIRED to issue requests like this to proxies, an implementation MUST handle receiving requests like this, an implementation MUST use the abs_path form in requests to origin servers and gateways, ie PUT /test1/Users_ott_tmp_1_tst HTTP/1.1 Host: 127.0.0.1:5984 Dan
