Proper reverse tunnel support?

I want to bring this back from the dead because it's still very relevant and with the move to paid cloud subscription since is more important than ever. In a post I just made, the salient if salty point i think should be stressed (Hubitat over HTTPS/SSL using Apache - #52 by simple):

So again to renew this request, it would be as simple as just not hardcoding the http://<LOCAL HOST> in static ref/links and setting the hubURL: window.location.host since it appears the HE is internally aware of whether the request is coming from within the LAN (subnet) or externally in order to decide how to treat it - though i'm assuming the https://cloud.hubitat.com/api/... cloud link is itself a proxy/wrapper and rewrites the static links to a respective CDN store.

The point here is KISS and occam's razor in assessing this feature request. It's not changing anything but removing a (now poor security practice) uri component and letting the browser fill in the blanks.
