Ok, that would be cool if Tomcat can be configured that header compression and 
NPN should not be used (or no SSL at all). SSL/TLS connections (without NPN) 
are supported natively by .Net so that a NPN TLS tunnel wouldn't be needed then.

Ok, thank you for your efforts!

Yes, I agree. I could modify the SPDY redirector so that it appends x-headers 
for the client IP etc. (but currently I don't know much about transferring 
certificates - is that what "CREDENTIAL" frame in SPDY is for?) 

Thanks!
