Olivier, sorry I didn't respond any sooner I had only seen the comment on
Launchpad. I certainly can make the change. I had opted to use a separate test
because it does cause one to wait substancially less for the standard
connection to fail (since you can wait a long time if a firewall just drops
packets rather than sending an ICMP reply). I however know that the test itself
was kind of poorly done, with an arbitrary timeout...

Thanks for the response about using the HTTP transport by default for proxy
connections, it does make sense. That said, I'd then also remove "proxies" from
the standard connection since it would always be empty in that case.

/ Matt
