is this still true?

 WARNING: proxy_auth can't be used in a transparent proxy

Yes. It's a feature of the browsers.

But note that it only applies to transparently intercepted port 80 traffic.

It is possible to use authentication in reverse proxies/accelerators where the proxy is infront of your own web servers as the proxy is then officially the web server (with the web server being only the storage method..). But not if the web servers also require HTTP authentication and uses a different password..
