Yup, sucks definitely.

I have been working with different proxies (squid, cacheflow, ms  
proxy) for quite a while, and I always only needed hostname:port to  
connect to them. I guess having user:pass at host:port in the bundles  
solves the proxy madness in around 80% of the cases - might be worth  
continuing on this track.
