+proxy authentication
+
+ Allow RSYNC_PROXY to be http://user:pass@proxy.foo:3128/, and do
+ HTTP Basic Proxy-Authentication.
+
+ Multiple schemes are possible, up to and including the insanity that
+ is NTLM, but Basic probably covers most cases.
+
+SOCKS
+
+ Add --with-socks, and then perhaps a command-line option to put them
+ on or off. This might be more reliable than LD_PRELOAD hacks.
+
+Better statistics:
+
+ <Rasmus> mbp: hey, how about an rsync option that just gives you the
+ summary without the list of files? And perhaps gives more
+ information like the number of new files, number of changed,
+ deleted, etc. ?
+ <mbp> Rasmus: nice idea
+ <mbp> there is --stats
+ <mbp> but at the moment it's very tridge-oriented
+ <mbp> rather than user-friendly
+ <mbp> it would be nice to improve it
+ <mbp> that would also work well with --dryrun
