Comment (by kriation):

 TOC/TOC2/OSCAR (the ones that I feel the most pain with) but I can see
 applications with MSNP and YMSG as well.

 The reason that I believed that GET support (to the proxy) would solve an
 inability to connect was the following:

 If I use the client provided by AOL to connect, I'm successful (I have
 packet data sniffed from the wire to show this). If I use the latest
 pidgin client, I'm unsuccessful.

 I could be entirely incorrect in my assumption that supporting HTTP GET
 would solve this problem, but I'll double check and provide the sniffed
 data if need be.
