If "hard" is how do you know that the discovery protocol is providing you information you can trust, then let's solve for that.  But let's at least understand what we're solving for.

Not much interest in standardising WPAD (security concerns, deployment concerns), but strong interest in proxy.pac from implementers, due to considerable pain. Would be interested in clarifying the current format and normalising behaviour as much as possible, and potentially in extending / replacing the format. E.g., IPv6, secure proxy.
