Hello Christian, I understand your concern, but to express it correctly, you have the problems with Tapestry applications when you are trying to use online proxies that are trying to protect your internet experience via active redirection and URL modification.
These kind of proxies are not the real HTTP proxies that are widely used all over the world, these are working transparently for any application and I'm quite sure Tapestry 4.1.X application will work without any problems under these (I'm sure because I'm behind such proxy). The problem with web proxies of internet anonymizers is general and not only related to Tap 4.1, try to launch any AJAX enabled and/or Javasciript powered application that require some network communication from AJAX/JS tier, and you will see that such kind of anonymizers fail to do their job.
