Yum and Socks Proxy

Hi,

Is there an option to support Yum through a socks proxy? I definitely
require to use the socks proxy option, if available.

Point is, i have limited access to the internet, and the socks proxy
is all i have got. I would definitely be interested to know if yum
supports socks (ver 5) or it can be made to support in the near
future.

I had discussed this on freenode #yellodog too and I was told to ask in here,

Awaiting your reply eagerly.
