- HTTP proxy authentication
-- Improve dealing with problems when update for particular service fails (static failure (Auth data) / temporary failure (DNS) )
- -> static failure: e.g. disable service.
- -> temporary failure: e.g. increase idle period for that service.
-
- Add curl HTTP headers to disable proxy caching
- On too many update errors: Configurable block period and error threshold counter

+Nice to have:
+- webcheck mode: Cache last known IP
+
+ We only determine the current IP every "webcheck_interval" to prevent server trashing.
+
+ If a service can't be updated right now (because the update interval forces an idle period),
+ it will only be updated after the next successful webcheck IP determination.
+ We could cache the last known IP and update the service as soon as
+ the service's update interval permits.
