There is a class of security attacks which are based on remote error pages
coming back from HTTPS and other special connections. To protect from those
browsers are moving away from displaying certain remote denial pages at
all. They will not do a temporary redirection at all for authentication or
encryption responses.

Best you can do is use ACLs in squid to deny the CONNECT requests and
setup a custom local template. That has a slim but non-zero chance of being
seen by the user.
