Finally got the setup to work.
For some backends I thought I needed ProxyPreserveHost On.
Investigating further I found a way for the server to construct pages
with absolute URLs to the external server-name.

I haven't thought it through completely, but I'd guess you could use
ProxyPassReverse on that, as in
ProxyPassReverse / http://www.somehost.com/
even if somehost.com is the name of the proxy.
