Hehe, maybe it is overkill for most users, but for me, let me explain our
situation.

I am located at China mainland, and you know, we have G-F-W(Great Fire Wall)
which banned (all china mainland) access to some sites it deems
"inappropriate". And very very unfortunately, the famous national graphic
podcasting and CNN news podcasting is on this banned list. In order to download
these banned podcasting, I have to use "tor"(the proxy penetrating the
firewall), you probably know. TOR is great but also tor is quite quite slow.

So now I have 2 categories of podcasting, 1 is on the black list of G-F-W, the
other white list, so I have to set proxy on the first category, but not set
proxy on the second category(cause this will greatly hurt the download speed). 

That's my dilemma.
