Adding custom headers to requests / authorizing proxy auth on higher level proxies

Hello,

I have read the faq, browsed the archieves, dejanews, google,
and sacrified a black rooster on full moon but wasn't able to
find the answer, maybe someone can help me.

I need to access an upper level proxy which needs authorization,
and I want squid to authorize every requests it forwards to the
parent/sibling, and prevent the users to even *know* about this
authorization.

I seems to be simple: I need to add a static header line to every
request, like "Proxy-Authorization: Basic 3874623846723648236482",
but currently Squid does not seem to be able to add/update
custom HTTP headers.

Anyone met this problem before? Anyone met a solution? :)

I tried to check the source, I almost caught the logic, but got
lost in no time. Maybe someone crafted some patch already, or
it's already in just I miss the solution.

(Please CC the mail on my personal email, too, I read the
list but less frequently. Thanks.)

regards,
Peter
