I think you might lose https connections over http proxies that require
basic authentication unless you set a particular system property. See
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8210814 
<https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8210814> and
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=549832 
<https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=549832> . I presume the
Java 11 HttpClient will behave the same in that respect.

Cheers,
