Actually using an additional web server as RP makes the whole
architecture more complicated.
Especially if you use 'http' as the protocol from RP to GF you have to
be aware of the consequences.
Using well-known-ports for HTTP/HTTPS is NOT a design/architecture
criteria IMHO as this can be achieved with GF as well.
As with every service you should minimize the exposed ports anyway ... etc.
