Yes buddy, it is an extra steps, it is not just a tunneling solution, it has a reverse proxy capabilities which give the user more flexibility on tunnels customizations, every user has his own story and usecase that goes beyond what a normal ssh tunneling can do for example.

Thanks for your comment.

This would be so easy to implement with dyndns, upnp and ipv6 these days. All these reverse proxies usually do nothing more than reinvent stun/turtle routing, in a really proprietary and crappy manner... :-/
