+1 As our product is changing, this is becoming a big concern of ours. People have told us that they can access our website with InternetExplorer, but our Swing application can't access our services because of proxy issues. If the proxy setting could be automatically obtained (already authenticated), it would make our rollout so much easier.
We are currently using Apache's HttpClient, which has a Window's specific client that can use NT credentials to authenticate with the proxy. However, it is not fully supported (due to resource constraints) and there isn't a Mac counterpart. So, as for the bug report, I would hope that authentication be incorporated, or at least considered, as part of a total solution. I have seen some net-dev emails about authentication recently, so I am hoping this can all be addressed in coordination.
