Thank you for the comments and extensions. About this question:

I probably should formulated it better. My more general questions would be: are there error conditions that could occur during the proxy header parsing that could leave the Kamailio core with some (socket) data from the proxy protocol, and some data from the normal parsing? I am asking especially as this would be a classical border condition that could lead to e.g. some security issue.

Otherwise the code also for me looks ready to merge. Please add some documentation about this new core parameter in the wiki core cookbook (https://www.kamailio.org/wiki/cookbooks/devel/core).
