It'd be useful if there was an option to specify a proxy for IRC
connections so a bouncer / irc proxy can be used. This usually would be
a different proxy from the globally set proxy used for http, ssh, etc.

Both me and upstream are a bit confused by this bug report. Afaik to use an IRC
proxy/bouncer you just specify the proxy as the server instead of your normal
irc server? So that should work with the current -idle.

I suppose you want support for socks proxy and things like that ?

Yep, that's the sort of thing I mean. There's several bouncers that
support socks or by addition of a custom command "CONNECT" in the IRC
protocol that is used for selecting the target network that should be
used.

Cheers,
