I'd like that to... But

You're only partly true. The question you should ask yourself is 'I have
this ticket, how do I get/show that to squid (or whatever)'...
The answer here i 'through the browser'. That is, the browser should
'pick it up (from memory or file)' and deliver it 'on behalf of the user'.
Currently 'there is no browser that can do this'. I saw that mozilla
_might_ do this, but it was not verified.

Adding Kerberos support for squid wouldn't be TO difficult, but that
doesn't matter, since you have no means of transfering it (your ticket)
TO squid...
