nginx cannot proxy_pass at regexp location. I made this workaround.
Works great! Now I can cache any static data provided by backend. 🙂 from any location!

location ~* \.(gif|jpg|png|ico)$ {
rewrite ^.(gif|jpg|png|ico) /$1 break;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;

proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
