BTW, what is the purpose of the httpproxy protocol?
It's for creating a plain-tcp connection through a http proxy, by using
the CONNECT method. It's necessary for e.g. tls, where the proxy must let
the client speak directly with the destination server. If the proxy allows
this kind of connection on ports other than 443, it can also be used for
tunneling just about any protocol that run over one single tcp connection
through such proxies.
