I have not tried with the web-api, but everything else seems to work (and is much faster than Apache with much lower memory consumption). Would be good to know if it actually works however. :)
Haven't looked at it, but I would guess that these are used by tomcat for creating the request object:
+ proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
+ proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
+ proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
Seems to be a de facto standard [1], so it should be fine. It's probably worth it to verify this, though..
