Package: foxyproxy
Version: 2.7.5~dfsg.1-1
Severity: wishlist

Odd, the only time I see this is with foxyproxy enabled. It seems this
should be an internal firefox URL that instead makes its way out as an
HTTP request. Just thought you would like to know.

It was caused by clicking the orange RSS icon in the URL bar, which
comes from <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS
2.0" href="http://localhost/articles/index.php/feed";> in the <head> of
a page browsed, (here on my offline test machine.)

WWWOFFLE Illegal Protocol
Your request for URL
feed://http//localhost/articles/index.php/feed
uses the feed protocol which is not supported by the WWWOFFLE proxy server.

The WWWOFFLE program can only process requests for the protocols that
it understands. WWWOFFLE handles the most common protocols for
fetching data like the HTTP and FTP protocols.

tcpflow -i lo shows:

GET feed://http//localhost/articles/index.php/feed HTTP/1.1
Host: http
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.6) 
Gecko/2009020409 Iceweasel/3.0.6 (Debian-3.0.6-1)

Picking "default" in foxyproxy gives the proper request:
GET /articles/index.php/feed HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.6) 
Gecko/2009020409 Iceweasel/3.0.6 (Debian-3.0.6-1)

Indeed, wget, lwp-request, lynx, w3m, midori all poop out.

However
$ firefox feed://http//localhost/articles/index.php/feed
works, if foxyproxy is set to "default".
