However, since it is a common way to access, for instance, an FTP site ia a HTTP-proxy (such as Squid or ISA), I'd say that this is still inconvenient that this method is not supported by httpclient. Perhaps it should not be default behaviour, but it would be nice to have an option to enable this feature. Do you think that would be an option? I can make a patch for this, after we decide which method to use to activate this behaviour.
