 Replying to [comment:2 rekkanoryo]:
 > Note that libproxy is wildly deficient currently; this has been
 discussed at least twice.  It is missing at least the ability to determine
 the type of proxy.
 Care to mention what is missing?
 If you read *any* libproxy documentation you would find:
  * The format of the returned proxy strings are as follows:
  *   - http://[username:password@]proxy:port
  *   - socks://[username:password@]proxy:port
  *   - socks5://[username:password@]proxy:port
  *   - socks4://[username:password@]proxy:port
  *   - <procotol>://[username:password@]proxy:port
  *   - direct://
