Hi Keith,
I'm no expert on this stuff. I suppose you cannot let squid generate post-data with the user/pass, or you would have done so, right?
The patch seems small and inobtrusive enough that we can easily include it, and it doesn't hurt anyone. Is it generic enough that it could be made to work with other proxies/tools too? Then I'd say: include it.

Hey everyone, I was wondering how other people handle logging teams in to domjudge during their competitions? We’ve always have volunteers go around to the team computers and manually log them in before the contest started, but I’ve always found that to be a bit tedious. We never liked the idea of giving the teams their own passwords since they could easily share them with each other.
Since we control the contest environment, I found a way to use a local squid proxy to log teams in automatically, without revealing the credentials to the team. I thought I’d share this since someone else might be interested. You can read about it here:

I don’t know if there is any interest in merging a feature like this into the main DOMjudge tree though, any thoughts? It’s a relatively small patch, but it’s such a narrow use case I don’t know if it’s worth supporting generally.
