Hi Arturo

The CONNECT method is quite special and when executed as a normal
request would end up corrupting the connection and polluting the
connection pool. This is the reason why there is no special class
representing the CONNECT method. There is ProxyClient for those special
cases when one wants to establish a tunnel through an HTTP proxy.
