As per defined by HTTP.

To serevers and other "parent" proxies Squid is just a HTTP client like
any other HTTP client.

No idea. Probably not a very wise thing to do that late in the
processing. Most likely better to do it in client_side.c to make sure
the request is fully restarted on the new URL.

For a reference on how to do such things, see for example the error_map
function of the rproxy branch <http://squid.sourceforge.net/rproxy/>.
This intercepts error pages and replaces the body with the content of
some other URL.
