#3 and #4 can be done using simple cache_peer_access rules with
urlpath_regex ACLs. Here is an untested sketch:

  cache_peer serv1 parent 80 originserver ...
  cache_peer serv2 parent 80 originserver ...

  acl toServ1 urlpath_regex ^/$
  acl toServ2 urlpath_regex ^/foo$

  cache_peer_access serv1 allow toServ1
  cache_peer_access serv2 allow toServ2

I believe the "bar" to "baaz" change in your requirement #5 requires a
URL rewrite using a URL rewriter, eCAP, or ICAP. As Eliezer has said, if
you can do that rewriting on the origin server, do it there.

Do not forget to deal with URLs that do not match any of the three
patterns you have specified.

HTH,
