Package: apt
Version: 0.5.2
Severity: wishlist

As far as i see in the documentation of apt, the only way to specify proxy server protected by a a username/password combination is to set a http://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED] option in apt.conf or as environment variable. To suit the need of paranoid people (like i am in some ways) it should be possible to set an option, which forces apt to ask for proxy-username and proxy-password
on usage and does not depend on saving it to unsafe places.
