which means, if your proxy can reach internal servers, you can proxy the
requests the usual way, including DNS resolution.

There's currently no way for proxy to tell the client "don't go to me, go
directly to the site".
Therefore you must exceptions either configured directly or use a WPAD file
that will tell the browser to go directly to internal servers.

But, if you are going to differ internal sites by their IP addresses, and
the clients enter hostnames, browsers will still have to resolve those
hostnames to IP addresses.

You should fasten your DNS resolution ...
