Right now you can't.

it is not yet possible. This need has been identified and we're working on it at Exceliance. We need to identify all usage patterns to ensure that we can cover all situations. Most likely being able to specify the protocol from a string and extracting the host part from a configurable header should solve most common needs. If the host part needs rewriting, we would then just have to rewrite the host part before performing the redirection.
