 In your previous mail you wrote:

   Med: To understand the issue, I recommend you the following
   reading: http://haproxy.1wt.eu/download/1.5/doc/proxy-protocol.txt
   
   Med: You can make a quick search on the XFF practices in
   load-balances/proxies to see how it is used for logging purposes.

=> another basic questions: is any of these an IETF blessed protocol?
It doesn't seem to be the case so IMHO these protocols should adapt
to the logging recommendations, not the opposite, and of course
this should be done where these protocols were developed.
