There is no plan to add these features to WWWOFFLE.

WWWOFFLE works best when it is the closest proxy to the users.  If you
really want WWWOFFLE to communicate with other proxies then you can
always run Squid as well.  This way the browser talks to WWWOFFLE,
WWWOFFLE talks to the local Squid and this uses CARP to communicate
with any other proxies.
