It would be possible (and, in some cases, useful) to send tunneled
traffic through adaptation services, but doing so requires a significant
development effort: HTTP already provides what ICAP and eCAP services
need to be able to see (and even modify) tunnels, but Squid does not
implement such adaptations (yet?).
