You asked the question "if proxy removes
automatically the first uri for itself, how do i know that it was
removed?". Loose_route will not tell us this. After loose_route the topmost 
URI will never match the proxy but we do not know if loose_route removed an 
original topmost URI. Loose_route could be enhanced to give four return 
codes -- no route header present, pre-loaded URI removed ( no To tag ), 
in-dialogue URI removed, route header was present but topmost URI did not 
match.

Anyway, I do not want to turn this into a religous argument. I can certainly 
put an extra loose_route into the script to catch the pre-loaded case.

The example scripts could be changed to catch this case as well so that an 
Openser noobie does not have a mysterious looping problem.
