url-retrieve should use CONNECT when talking to a https URL over a proxy
and then talk over the connection as if not using a proxy.

;; use locally running privoxy as proxy
(setq url-proxy-services '(("https" . "localhost:8118")))
(with-current-buffer (url-retrieve-synchronously "https://www.heise.de")
  (buffer-string)) => "HTTP/1.1 200 Connection established\n\n"

Andreas.
