Minor side-note, unless the proxy is trying to brutally MITM the session
(forged certificates and all), then there's absolutely no way for it to
know if a particular TLS session is carrying HTTPS traffic or something
else (short of doing some kind of statistical analysis of the traffic
flow, that is).
