Do you have an example of configuration where the computer connect directly to the wifi but still use a proxy, I've added to extraheader to the code and checked for no regression but I'm curious to test the bug by myself.

Im using a local proxy on my laptop to allow caching of big file (video, ISO, etc...). I use Squid and my firewall is configured to do transparent proxy. I you want to try yourself, configure Squid as transparent proxy http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/InterceptionProxy and your firewall to redirect http traffic to your proxy. And with FireHOL, i use this command: http://firehol.sourceforge.net/commands.html?#transparent_squid
