Is it possible? Can proxies somehow "advertise" themselves the way some media services or printers do?

Any service can advertise itself using zeroconf but you’d need to establish a service type for proxy and have a client(browser) know to watch for it and connect through automatically (if approved by user)….

Thanks. Have you ever seen this implemented?
