libvmod_curl is quite useful for sending requests to peer or "side" caches and even public CDNs, but it's even more useful if one can control the http protocol "method" used in such requests as this is often a non-standard or defacto mechanism of performing authoritative cache management (i.e. PURGE /foo HTTP/1.1).
