 See also: #4011 (Add Proxy Support)

 Simply disabling all the transports does cause certain functionalities of
 !WordPress from working (ie. cron).

 !WordPress Does need a method to define proxy servers for HTTP requests
 And a constant to define lack of external http access. I might consider
 spending some time doing it myself for 2.9 if no-one else does it before
 then.
