Sorry this took so long. As usual, things got inserted ahead of it in
the priority queue. :-p
Anyway, here's the client-side sibling proposal to the
already-implemented 174. It cuts down time-to-first-byte for HTTP
requests by 25 to 50 percent, so long as your SOCKS client (e.g.
webfetch, polipo, etc.) is patched to support it. (With that kind of
speedup, I think it's worth it.)
Discuss. ;-)
