Allow Basic authentication to pre-encode the username/password

Joshua,
Support for pluggable authentication schemes has already been implemented in the
CVS HEAD. Feel free to take it for a spin and give us feedback. 

Besides, the problem you are having is not very difficult to workaround with the
current stable version of HttpClient, too. All you have to do is to manually add
the 'Proxy-Authorization' request header:

GetMethod httpget = new GetMethod("/requires-proxy/whatever.html");
httpget.setRequestHeader("Proxy-Authorization", "Basic xxxxxxx");

If you find this answer satisfactory, with your permission I'll mark the bug
report as invalid

Oleg
