Extension don’t have direct access to the Chromium network stack. There is the ‘_workbench.downloadResource’ command to allow for simple GET requests, but no command yet for POST requests.

Ideally we would implement support for proxy auth in our existing proxy support for the Node.js API, but I don’t have a timeline for that at the moment. (That would also benefit all other extensions.)

@chrmarti yes that works, but I’d rather not have to expose my password in env variables. It seems that having this configured also breaks other applications that use this env var. Chocolately for example is confused by this entry.
