Comment:

 I really don't think this is something to be done on the application
 level.  If you're running in front of a proxy, it it your job to set up
 your PHP installation to put the correct address into
 {{{$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']}}}

 You can do this via a PHP prepend, as set in php.ini

 {{{auto_prepend_file}}}
