There is no way to have the default being a redirection from
http://www.foo to http://foo and specific exceptions which are
unmodified.  Only the opposite can be done, specific redirections and
everything else unmodified.


It would need a new special case configuration option to map all
servers expect specified exceptions.  It would be annoying to change
the configuration file for every server that doesn't work with both
http://www.foo and http://foo.  At the moment the worst that happens
is that the same server is cached twice, with this new option it would
make some servers inaccessible (except by config file editing).
