Ok...
This is already possible:
ProxyPass /news/story/ http://backend/cgi-bin/story_app?id=
This will turn "/news/story/7987548" into "http://backend/cgi-bin/story_app?id=7987548"

Just add as many ProxyPass lines as you need, mapping to the same backend URL.

Why not just include a fragment of config file, or use a .htaccess file (if it works)?
This kind of functionality definitely has scope outside the proxy, because it is quite possible that apps you are trying to hide behind URLs are located on the same server. I have a feeling mod_rewrite will do this for you already, or if it doesn't, this is where modification should be made so it should. The proxy should only be doing one thing - proxying. Other apps should be handled by other bits of Apache.
