[Xymon] "Not possible to test https-sites via a proxy"

Hi,

I would like to test HTTPS website trough my web proxy, but I read on the Xymon documentation :

"HTTP Testing via proxy [...] http://webproxy.sample.com:3128/http://www.foo.com/ would be the syntax for testing the www.foo.com website via the proxy running on "webproxy.sample.com" port 3128. [...] Note that it is not possible to test https-sites via a proxy, nor is it possible to use https for connecting to the proxy itself. [...]"

Any change this restriction has been removed/improved ?

Thanks
