Since it seems that what you really want to do is tunnel through http, 
here's something I've been working on.  It seems to work (I've been 
using it for a short time). I don't have any time to work on it further 
at the minute and I won't have much time to help people with any 
problems (sorry).  If anyone want's to help/take ownership, let me know.
