I'll grant you that you're situation sounds relatively complicated, and I have little doubt that such a situation is very common. Perhaps if you could give me a more concrete scenario I would be able to give you a more thought out answer to this point. For example: A network scenario like: - behind a proxy (eg Squid) - doesn't resolve DNS addresses for domains outside the LAN - forces you to use a HTTP tunnel via the CONNECT command to pierce the proxy where the CONNECT command requires you to specify a particular server address and port number.
