You are right about that assumption, but it is not really a part of the
SslBump design as such. There is just not enough code to handle this
case better.

FWIW, two active Squid projects, non-HTTP bypass and Peek-and-Splice,
are laying the ground work to give an admin the ability to tunnel
"unwanted" traffic (for various definitions of "unwanted"), but even
after those two projects are completed, more work will be needed to be
able to tunnel non-SSL traffic more-or-less comfortably in the presence
of SslBump. Hopefully, there will be enough interest to get it done.


Cheers,

Alex.
