[squid-users] Apache::Gateway emulation?

Is there any way to emulate Apache::Gateway with Squid-2.5?

http://cpan.perl.org/authors/id/C/CC/CCWF/

In a nutshell, the desired behaviour is this:
1. the gateway sits at the border of a network, users from outside can
see only the gateway
2. users "see" the gateway in a browser, via HTTPS; encryption is
mandatory
3. users need to authenticate to the gateway in order to use it
4. the gateway accepts addresses like
https://the.gateway.address/?url=http://some.server.inside/some/file.html and does "the right thing": displays the requested URL as it were its own
5. should be able to map http, https and ftp servers from inside

Seems like an authenticated encrypted reverse proxy, but with some more
stuff added.
