Summary: urllib2+https+proxy not working

Initial Comment:
Using urllib2 to access an https site using a proxy 
doesn't work. It always returns "<HTML> </HTML>"

I've been looking around for bug reports on this and 
code samples, but all that I've got were emails/forum 
posts dating back to 2003 warning that the HTTPS over 
Proxy in urllib2 isn't implemented in Python!

Is this true?
