httpseverywhere + Privoxy. The goals would be to:
1] give the most https rules for all users of either package;
2] reduce double-work of collecting new rules;
3] eliminate any need for end-users of one package to run a conversion
script to import rules from the other package.

I haven't worked on any. My first idea was to canvas the developers of
the two projects for your thoughts and willingness to go along with
the notion. At issue might be more coordination of data-set updates
between the projects than the coding and formatting.

Peter Eckersley of the httpseverywhere project pointed me to a perl
script https://github.com/mikecardwell/perl-HTTPSEverywhere that
already ports "HTTPS Everywhere to proxy-land".
