That's the problem. I made HttpRoute a class rather than an interface,
and it's not a class meant to be extended. Connection managers rely on
HttpRoute to determine re-usability. CONNECT requests are generated by
the director, operators are not supposed to handle it under the covers.
Especially not if proxy authentication comes into play. The route
building logic used by the (default) director is also tied to the
limitations of HttpRoute. This will need some pondering. The quickest
hack might be "ProxyChain extends HttpHost" for specifying proxies
and a custom director to interpret that.

cheers,
  Roland
