Currently, Konversation doesn't support using an HTTP Proxy.  In order to use Konversation, I'm having to use HTTPort on a Windows PC to encapsulate and redirect my IRC connection through the HTTP Proxy.  That leads to random disconnects and timeouts.

In addition to HTTP Proxy support, an option for sending a keepalive PING would be helpful to maintain the connection through the proxy.  The number of seconds between keepalive pings should be configurable.
