It'll be a shame if I have to step aside from our defined standard. But as long as we're running GWMSG I will need to stick to it. And as such I will most likely not be able to provide input if empathy works or not.
As for proxies, I'll let Dominique comment there. My guess, though, is that most people don't have to use proxies, so are not affected. People using proxies will know that they have to use one, and can use pidgin instead.
Thanks for the honor. Certainly not every protocol is able to pass (easily) through a proxy. Especially things like IRC (I think that works with empathy too?) is very tricky and in most situations not handled by proxies (standard proxies.. socks will work but they are hard to find in any non-geek environment) But then: if you have to go through a proxy then you're most likely in a corp environment where anyhow they would not want you to use IRC. For the other protocols, I'm somewhat surprised that no work was done in empathy to get libproxy support in (isn't the connection done mostly using libsoup?). GNOME has generally a very good proxy support and it's a shame that this is missing. But blocking Empathy from being the default for this very reason is not needed I think.
