Squid supports this mode of operation when seeing ftp://user@host/ style
URLs, but unfortunately most clients tries to be either too dumb or too
smart to handle it right.

It's quite amasing as when using a proxy there technically is no
difference at all between http:// and ftp:// to the browser other than
the difference in letters. In both cases the request is sent over HTTP
to the HTTP proxy with then gateways ftp:// requests to FTP. Yet they
handle the two schemes very very differently..
