Description
What I mean is the JVM hosting the client, if executing in a proxied environment will probably be already configured to work with the proxy.
For example by having system properties like https.proxyHost and https.proxyPort set.
Or via something like this:
https://java.com/en/download/help/proxy_setup.xml
Or a number of other ways I might be missing.
In other words the cf java client should strive to pick up proxy configuration automatically in a similar way that the JREs built-in http client libraries do.

Research direction
No source file or test is named in the issue. Start at the Java client's HTTP and proxy configuration entry point, review JVM properties such as https.proxyHost and https.proxyPort alongside the linked JRE proxy guidance, and define tests for automatic proxy discovery. Done means supported JVM proxy settings work without manual configuration.
