When you need to switch between protocols (http/https) or servers
(cms.example.com/www.example.com), you need complete URLs. If you don't,
you can configure the ProxyTransformer to produce relative URLs.
Maybe we should provide this option for the ProxyModule service too,
or introduce a configurable ProxyLinkRewriter service which is used by
both of them.
