Using [P,L] instead of [P] will not hurt but the L is redundant. The P 
immediately forces the substituted URL through the proxy module without 
processing any more rewrite rules.

You might be better off matching to to ^/marketplace/(.*) instead of 
^/marketplace(.*). Avoids collisions with /marketplaceandstuff.html, 
/marketplace2/..., etc

You could also do this with a ProxyPass of the following form if you have 
mod_proxy installed in your Apache:

ProxyPass ^/marketplace/ 
http://www.myvirtualhost.com:8080/VirtualHostBase/http/www.myvirtualhost.com:80/Marketplace/VirtualHostRoot/
ProxyPassReverse ^/marketplace/ http://www.myvirtualhost.com:8080/Marketplace/
