Comment:

 That isn't what I was thinking.  Mainly because that would change the
 proxy for the entire system, not just Cyberduck.  I was thinking more
 along the lines of a proxy ONLY for ssh connections, like OpenSSH does.

 For one thing, the proxy for me is an HTTP proxy.  That proxy ONLY allows
 proxying of SSH connections to the internal network, not other external
 hosts.

 For example...
 Apparently, there is no need for a DNS record for any server you want to
 connect to.  You can just have an '/etc/hosts' entry on the proxy server.
 So, any "ssh" connections to a host on somedomain.ca, or proxydomain.ca,
 will get run through the "proxytunnel" command, which happens to proxy
 through apache at sshproxy.proxydomain.ca:80.

 My ~/.ssh/config

 Host *.somedomain.ca
  DynamicForward 1080
  ProxyCommand proxytunnel -v -p sshproxy.proxydomain.ca:80 -d %h:%p -H
 "User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Win32)\n"
  ServerAliveInterval 30
 Host *.proxydomain.ca
  DynamicForward 1080
  ProxyCommand proxytunnel -v -p sshproxy.proxydomain.ca:80 -d %h:%p -H
 "User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Win32)\n"
  ServerAliveInterval 30
