No proxy would be fully transparent (unless it was a reverse proxy representing the real endpoint), however it should be exceptionally easy to install a policy allowing the proxy explicitly. It is a hair more annoying for the user than no proxy, but it gives schools, etc. a way to control the computers that they own without blocking port 443 for everyone and everything. > > +1 > > As Mike has said, there are good motives and bad motives for intermediaries.

In the TLS case, authorizing an intermediary has to require some form of explicit configuration on at least one of the client or the server. Otherwise it is vulnerable to MITM. On the server side, the intermediary could plausibly have access to the server's certificate, so it can just pretend to be the endpoint to the client. On the client side, there has to be some way to authorize a root cert for use with WebSocket, so the intermediary can MITM you. If it needs to be easier than this, then that seems like primarily a browser UI issue, not a protocol issue. We could do other things for the non-TLS case, but I am increasingly convinced that the non-TLS case is uninteresting. Regards, Maciej
