This actually sounds like a good idea, but I did not look deep enough on
how ra_serf actually does handle it's connection. Does it also support
http proxying? Or only socks?

Not knowing the code (yet) it might be that we'll need to query libproxy
on our own (not really difficult; libproxy only has 3 API calls).
