Rick McGuire commented on GERONIMO-3706:
----------------------------------------

Should the proxy configuration be specified on the HttpRequestMessage or on the 
AsyncHttpClient?  There's going to need to be some attribute set on the message 
that allows the request encoder to know if the request needs to be a proxy 
request or a normal direct request.  This could be something that's turned on 
by the AsyncHttpClient  or the request could directly carry the proxy 
information and the AsyncHttpClient could use the information from the request 
to determine how to make the connection.  This is somewhat similar to how the 
SSLContext information is handled.

> Proxy support is a critical feature for HTTP clients.  I'd like to have 
> AsyncHttpClient support proxy.  The following would be considered as the 
> basic features:
> - Enabling connecting through proxies for http and https targets
> - Exclusion (domains that should not go through proxies)
> - Allowing proxy related configuration on AsyncHttpClient
> - Support for proxy authentication, at least for Basic authentication (and 
> perhaps Digest too?)
> There are things like SOCKS support, etc., but the above will be a good 
> start.  Thoughts?
