The "client" side was writen for the proxy initially. It turns out
that because the way Java is, you can use it for other purposes (ie
you can make HotJava run with that client side API, by usinf the above
mentionned property)

There is not much docs, but 1.0alpha5 came with a list of available
filters. The AUthFilter is not used by the proxy, but is meant for GUI
clients (that's why it pops up a dialkog to getr the user/password)
