Having an argument to be able to specify a proxy would be useful.

What kind of proxy do you need? HTTP?

HTTP and SOCKS support would be nice.

Is it not sufficient to use the http_proxy environment variable?
firejail --env=http_proxy=1.2.3.4 ...

Sorry I did not know about this option. This works fine. It's fairly easy to forward a SOCKS proxy into a HTTP proxy using privoxy so I'll just do that.
