Setting proxy parameters via mod_rewrite

Let's say I have the following rule:

ProxyPass /foo balancer://cluster5/foo stickysession=JSESSIONID

I want to use RewriteRule for my proxy directives. So I'd say this:

RewriteRule ^/(foo.*) balancer://cluster5/$1 [P]

But how do I set stickysession=JSESSIONID [as well as any other
parameters that ProxyPass allows] - or is this a feature request?

Is it just as easy as use E=
RewriteRule ^/(foo.*) balancer://cluster5/$1 [E=stickysession:JSESSIONID]

Use ProxySet instead. I assume your session is sticky for the entire
cluster?

RewriteRule ^/(foo.*) balancer://cluster5/$1
ProxySet balancer://cluster5 stickysession=JSESSIONID

See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.html#proxyset
