No, you can also use an Access Rule to manipulate the traversal stack
(which VHM uses to reset the paths).

I attached the Python Script that I use as an access rule for my server;
it makes sure that URLs coming through stunnel (HTTPS SSL encryption) are
correct, redirects /manage access to the HTTPS port, and rewrites URLs for
my virtal domains.
