I've checked our discussions about the proxy functionality, and it looks like we never reached an agreement on how to implement this feature. It was suggested to configure the proxy through sites.conf, and then Scott Garman replied pointing out that the "the proxy situation is a mess under Linux. This is likely to be a non-trivial problem (http://www.yoctoproject.org/blogs/sgarman/2011/proxy-problem)". After that, the discussion died out. We could review the implementation and provide some suggestions. Would that be useful?
