Well, over git:// (or any protocol that wraps git:// like ssh) we assume a

Yes it does. The CONNECT method is used to get a full-duplex channel to a 
remote site through a HTTP proxy. The downside with that is of course that 
most proxies are setup to disallow CONNECT to other ports than 443 (the https 
default port).
