When using the forward-socks-5 directive I would like to be able to do the following:

forward-socks-5 .example.com [originating ip]:[some other port] .

In other words, for particular requested sites, route the request back to a SOCKS proxy at the originating IP. The reason I need this is so that I can SSH tunnel to intranet websites at work from home. I'd rather not have to keep an ssh window open all the time on the Privoxy machine. I can't just use the IP of the originating machine in question because I would like to be able to do this from more than one machine.

Is this possible?

    Currently Privoxy can't do that, but you could use a forward-override action for each machine possible, and enable it based on the client IP address using tags.
