I'm assuming that you meant a SiteRoot , not an Access Rule.  If that works
pretty much the way you wanted, you should be able to get the rest by making
the Base dynamic.  Just leave the Base blank on your SiteRoots, and have the
rewrite rule add environment variable SiteRootBASE=https://foo.net when it
rewrites a .*manage.* URL.
