A proxy MUST NOT modify the "absolute-path" and "query" parts of the received target URI when forwarding it to the next inbound server, except as noted above to replace an empty path with "/" or "*".
I found where (in the discussion of normalization in §4.2.3) we say to

A proxy MUST NOT modify the "absolute-path" and "query" parts of the received target URI when forwarding it to the next inbound server except as required by that forwarding protocol.
