The thing is, WSO2 LB handles multiple domains. So, when a request such as http://foo.com/services/XXX comes in, it has to find out where to dispatch it to. For example, how do we know whether this request has to be forwarded to the AS or ESB if such a request comes in, and the LB is fronting bothe the AS & ESB?
There is more to this. The URLs in our components are calculated using the HostName field in the carbon.xml. Those also have to change depending on the context. For example, foo.com tenant will want to see its WSDL URLs as http://foo.com/services/XXX?wsdl not http://appserver.stratoslive.wso2.com/services/t/XXX?wsdl. In addition to URL displaying, there are many other areas which may need to be changed to handle such custom domains. This affects the whole platform. It is not a simple URL mapping problem.
