Thank you Amos, now I understand the mechanics behind this. However,
I'd prefer that users do not receive this frustrating error in a setup
with has nothing inherently wrong about it (especially frustrating is
the fact that they receive the error from the wrong proxy server, not the
one they have configured in the browser settings).

Do I understand correctly that the only way to avoid this error
message is to switch to HTCP (and ditch both ICP and CD)?
