Access ME-AppManager through reverse proxy?

I have set up an me-appmanager on the local network and I am successfully monitoring serveral servers. Now I want to be able to access the system from an external site. However, I do not wish to allow direct access from internet to a webserver on the LAN, we use a reverse proxy on DMZ for theese purposes.

I have configured the reverse proxy (apache 2.0.52) with SSL to do the following:
ProxyPass /appmanager http://x.x.x.x:9090/
ProxyPassReverse /appmanager http://x.x.x.x:9090/

This should successfully proxy all incoming requests and also translate any redirections returned from appmanager.
However, it does not work. Appmanager uses the original (internal) servername when constructing URLs like redirections and image links.

I have scanned through the available docs but can not find a way to tell appmanager not to use absolute URI's with the local hostname. Is there some way to tell appmanager to only use relative URI's when constructing URLs?
Or to give it an alternate URL prefix to use instead of the local hostname and port? I would however prefer to have appmanager working both externally and internally, a prefix would cause it to only work throu the proxy...
