-<p>Usage is basically similar to
-<code class="directive"><a href="#proxypassreverse">ProxyPassReverse</a></code>, but instead of
-rewriting headers that are a URL, this rewrites the <code>path</code>
-string in <code>Set-Cookie</code> headers.</p>
+<p>
+Useful in conjunction with
+<code class="directive"><a href="#proxypassreverse">ProxyPassReverse</a></code>
+in situations where backend URL paths are mapped to public paths on the
+reverse proxy. This directive rewrites the <code>path</code> string in
+<code>Set-Cookie</code> headers. If the beginning of the cookie path matches
+<var>internal-path</var>, the cookie path will be replaced with
+<var>public-path</var>.
+</p><p>
+In the example given with
+<code class="directive"><a href="#proxypassreverse">ProxyPassReverse</a></code>, the directive:
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ ProxyPassReverseCookiePath / /mirror/foo/
+ </code></p></div>
+will rewrite a cookie with backend path <code>/</code> (or
+<code>/example</code> or, in fact, anything) to <code>/mirror/foo/</code>.
+</p>
