This contributor can satisfy an XDI request by forwarding (and potentially manipulating) it to another XDI endpoint.

This can be used for a variety of purposes:

Logical separation of XDI2 servers without persistence layer ("business servers") from XDI2 servers with persistence layer ("graph servers")
Various gatekeeping/firewalling/proxying/auditing scenarios, in which an intermediate XDI2 server pre-processes an XDI request before passing it on the actual intended target XDI2 server.
Configuration of highly specialized XDI2 servers, e.g. for caching or signing purposes.
