There has been a patch by Dominique Leuenberger adding libproxy support to wget in the OpenSuse bugtracker, also proposed upstream on bug-wget@gnu.org in the past. I re-submitted an improved version of his patch upstream to the mailing list: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-wget/2012-04/msg00083.html The benefit of it would be that if libproxy was built with pacrunner support (for example with webkit, see bug 412573), one can explicitely specify a PAC file location in the environment variables http_proxy, https__proxy or ftp_proxy in the form of pac+http://server/path/to/proxy.pac and then wget is automatically given the "right" proxy for the specified URL, according to the PAC script. Reproducible: Always

i'd like to see this progress a bit more upstream, especially since i have no interest in maintaining this if upstream isn't responsive, i can merge it, but i'd just drop it when new versions came out rather than trying to figure it out myself also, wrt the patch, there are a few style issues you should prob fix. like missing spaces before the parens with func arguments.
