Regarding your changes to WinHttpDetectAutoProxyConfigUrl I'd like to propose simple solution for custom auto-configuration script URLs. Choose any (probably wine specific) registry location for storing wpad auto-configuration script URL and in WinHttpDetectAutoProxyConfigUrl firstly check if this registry entry is present and return it otherwise use current behavior.
I think it will be useful, because it gave user more freedom of placing wpad script. Moreover custom URL is for example used in our company network.
What exactly is the problem you're trying to solve? If you want to make your test app work in your home network, all you need to do is publish a wpad script for your local domain.
