that HTTP/1.1 (especially keepalives) is needed for dealing with some
authenticating proxies. What are the prospects for getting support for
this feature into 8.5? (Unlike the other things in that thread, this one
sounds like a bit of a killer and it seems that there are existing
solutions that we could adopt/adapt.)
