Yes I think you have found the reason why https requests were being 
forwarded to the backend as https - because otherwise the oauth 
validation fails on the backend.

The problem is that apache 2.4 seems to be throwing random 400 errors 
when requests are forwarded over https.

I'm going to reenable https forwarding for now, as random 400 errors are 
better than some people not being able to upload at all.
