Setting a proxy?

Question

Is there a config setting to be able to set a proxy in Craft? WordPress has something like this...

define('WP_PROXY_HOST', 'url_here);
define('WP_PROXY_PORT', 'port_here');

I was thinking a config setting like the following would be great...

'setProxy' => array(
    'host' => 'url_here',
    'port' => 'port_here'
),

Thanks, David

I'm having a hard time finding any documentation for those constants. Do you know of any? — Brad Bell, Jul 16 '14 at 15:32
I assume it's for making all of Craft's outbound requests (updating, etc.) point to a proxy server for internet access? — Brad Bell, Jul 16 '14 at 17:57
Yup that's correct. It's not obviously available in the WP codex but http://codex.wordpress.org/HTTP_API has a couple paragraphs. "...WordPress 2.8, compression, cookie support and proxy support were added." — Goldyberg, Jul 17 '14 at 00:08

Currently, it's not possible, but I'll add it to our "todo" list!
