--- Comment #48 from m.kuratczyk at psiphon.ca ---
The Psiphon Browser project (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/psiphon-browser/id1193362444), and other projects that depend on our technology, would benefit from being able to define per-WKWebView proxy settings. As things stand, we will have to decommission the project when UIWebView is fully deprecated.

> For folks following this bug, who would consider it sufficient to have a way to define per-app or per-WKWebView proxy setting?

This should be sufficient for our use case.

We currently use NSURLProtocol with UIWebView to proxy webview requests through our local HTTP and SOCKS proxies. We've had to develop workarounds for requests that are not intercepted by NSURLProtocol (e.g. OCSP requests during certificate validation) and media being fetched out of process. If WKWebView eventually provides proxy support, we would desire requests such as these to be proxied as well.
