At the moment, there is a huge hole in the WiFi implementation in
android because of the lack of proxy support.  This effectively
precludes use of android on many corporate networks, universities,
schools etc., due to the requirement in many organisations for
internet traffic to go via a proxy.

The issue is discussed here:  
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1273

Is there anyone actually looking at the issue?  It's been open on the
tracker for 18 months, but is still sat at new (not even reviewed)?

It seems like such a critical failure, particularly if we want Android
to gain more acceptance.  In the corporate market at the moment for
many there's no choice between Android/iPhone because the OS doesn't
provide WIFI proxy support.
