Except that if you try rejecting the CONNECT, the browsers just throw up generic error about connection failed and will just plain discard any payload the proxy sends. (And pretty much the same for non-browsers, if those even support CONNECT). And for http://, yes, the page will be displayed in browsers, but authority of response will be misinterpretted, creating other problems. In non-browsers, this can really create a mess. -Ilari
