A reverse-proxy in mod_perl is something I do for a living. When scaling up it quickly needs loads of RAM (2 Gb are cheap these days) but it is incredibly efficient and flexible for complex scenarios (e.g. taking over authentication dialogs, URL rewriting as you need them). We are busy porting that to Apache 2. So it's definitely feasible.
I have no code to offer, sorry (we're a GPL shop but we do not redistribute at large, a bit like what MySQL.com does), but anyway it's a custom-built thing targeted to WSSO, and you'd be probably better off starting from scratch or from HTTP::Proxy by Philippe Bruhat.
