 Replying to [comment:3 arma]:

 missing feature: it doesn't know how to send its traffic through a proxy.

 command line,

 You can't put upstream proxy settings on a pluggable transport's command
 line because the user might set them after Tor has started its pluggable
 transports.  Every pluggable transport needs to have a two-way control
 connection open with Tor at all times.
