Nothing weird about that at all. It is a perfectly normal CDN proxy
chain. The only potentially tricky bit will be getting the domain
owner to add your reverse-proxy IP address to the domain.

Forward/reverse are *input* modes, indicating the HTTP syntax expected
and resulting behaviour. Any type of proxy can be configured with a
cache_peer for *output*.

Only the interception proxy have problems with cache_peer sometimes,
because their very existence is a violation of the protocol.
