This isn't a simple feature request. Well, it's a simple request, but
the feature is complex.

.pac files are javascript files which are interpreted by the browser to
find the correct proxy for the URL being fetched. You can do anything
you like in terms of the Javascript in order to determine which proxy
to use, is any. If the author wanted, they could check the 5th letter
of the domain request and use a different proxy based on that.

I don't think it's practical to implement .pac files with slimserver
without building in a JS engine.
