to allow users extra level of privacy I would like to suggest that Shreddit have support for proxy server. This would easy allow users to run Shreddit over Tor

This could be control with new section in .cfg. e..g.

[proxy]
ip: 127.0.0.1
port: 9051

Looking at https://github.com/praw-dev/praw/blob/master/praw/__init__.py#L257 and https://github.com/praw-dev/praw/blob/master/praw/praw.ini it would appear that you can add http_proxy = '...' line to the [reddit] section of praw.ini (or define a different site_name for the config file) and do it from there.

That'd be a fast way to do it right away if you have a HTTP proxy. I'll take a look on Monday but I suspect I'd want to patch PRAW for a better way of doing this.
