You should be able to set http_proxy and https_proxy variable when using 'oc'. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1241045#c25. If I'm misunderstanding this request please let me know.
@mbarrett Do you think we should close the remaining request or carry it on our backlog?
Yes, special characters are supported. Relying on HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY and NO_PROXY env vars is the default solution for proxy support in most command line tools. Adding proxy auth ahead on 'oc login' and proxy sessions with CNTLM or something similar is probably doable, but as mentioned probably not very high in the list of priorities. If we want to move on with this, it must be turned into a Trello card in our backlog which will then be prioritized.
