Michael,
1. How does Warp know which interface, port, and IP address the connection comes in on? The port is specified by the user, so there's no purpose in Warp providing that to the application. The interface is (mostly) user specified as well. But it's not a request-specific piece of information anyway. If you wanted that information, why should it be part of the Request value? Warp could just provide it separately via a separate run function, e.g.:
I guess they want to know peer's port number. I don't know why it is important. However, I think that peer's IP address is important. If an application can obtain combination of peer's IP address and HTTP header, the application can tell whether or not communication is encrypted. --Kazu
