Research direction
Start by comparing the client implementation with the Rancher PushProx reference at cmd/client/main.go#L54. Trace how client requests are forwarded and add the corresponding option so services listening on 127.0.0.1 can be scraped through the host IP; confirm the localhost forwarding behavior works.
