Hi there! I was super excited to find this tool and wanted to give it a go. However, the corporate firewall I'm behind has a transparent HTTPS proxy in-between my laptop and the public internet. Would it be possible to allow users to supply one of the following?

An intermediate certificate file to verify against in the certificate chain
Proxy configuration to notify dnvm of a HTTPS proxy
A flag to turn off strict SSL verification

Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback -- I'll have to think about the best way to implement this. I've been trying to avoid maintaining too much infra on the hosting side so I'd like to make this as simple as possible to maintain. Maybe I can just pass a flag to HttpClient.
