With 2.6rc1 at the doors people are asking if xmlrpclib will be able to communicate through a proxy? It causes bzr and bugzilla tools to fail if used behind firewall, and there is no easy workaround for users.

It's very unlikely that such a change can be made at this stage. There is not even a patch to review...

But the tracker seems to contains a workaround. It seems to work without any modification of the standard library Does it actually work? Could bzr use it?
