Sameer posted the AllowCONNECT back in march. I adapted it to default

to ports 443 and 563 (for https:// and snews://) and wrote a description
for the mod_proxy.html document.

+The <SAMP>AllowCONNECT</SAMP> directive specifies a list of port numbers
+to which the proxy <SAMP>CONNECT</SAMP> method may connect.
+Today's browsers use this method when a <EM>https</EM> connection
+is requested and proxy tunneling over <EM>http</EM> is in effect.<BR>
+By default, only the default https port (443) and the default
+snews port (563) are enabled. Use the <SAMP>AllowCONNECT</SAMP>
+directive to overrride this default and allow connections to the
+listed ports only.
