I know it's pretty goofy, but what I'm trying to do is leverage a web
proxy (Squid, in this case) in front of my application for caching and
pipelining, since my application is partially functioning as a reverse
proxy and is receiving requests asynchronously, I'm trying to push the
connection optimization out to Squid rather than doing it myself.
According to this [1] post, Squid can handle this scenario by initiating
the SSL connection on the client's behalf.

Again, I know it's a pretty goofy scenario, but I thought I'd ask
anyway. Thanks for creating such a great library.
