HTTP proxies that require authentication are pretty rare these days,
because they break so many things that everyone expects to 'just work'.

Users that have configurations like that will need to manually download
the rpm files, add them to the system, and install them using yum
localinstall.  Whether or not we need to automate that is, in my mind,
questionable.
