IIRC it was by design yes, but I don't know the reasons behind it,
perhaps the dev mailing list or some developers reading this can
provide more information. You could also try #httpd-dev at Freenode.
I think you could reach your goals without using captured groups
though, I see in the initial virtualhost you shared, that there is no
servername, so probably you are only using that one for a few or
several hostnames, so you could just define separate virtualhosts with
their names and their own socket path, you can use "in-config"
variables with Define directive to avoid typing the same thing several
times or even use mod_macro, here is a brief example with in-config
variables:
Define subdomain1 printers
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
ServerName ${subdomain1}.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
LogLevel trace2
UseCanonicalName Off
ProxyPass / unix:/home/user/${subdomain1}/server.sock|http://127.0.0.1/
ProxyPassReverse /
unix:/home/user/${subdomain1}/server.sock|http://127.0.0.1/
...
</VirtualHost>
Define subdomain2 mail
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
ServerName ${subdomain2}.example.com
....etc
