Description
Hi, I am trying to connect to a websocket through a private proxy server which I need to authenticate with a username and password. However, I only see the option for a host and port but no username and password for adding a proxy.
Is this currently supported? Thanks

Research direction
Start with the linked autobahn/twisted/wamp.py entry point and trace how proxy host and port are passed into the WebSocket connection. Check the surrounding proxy configuration and relevant tests, if present. Done means username/password proxy authentication is either supported and verified or its unsupported status and implementation scope are clearly established.
