 One feature I am looking for (and am quite sure there are many other
 users out there) is TUNNELING capability or access through firewall. It
 is not a enhancement to the behaviour of CVS but more a desired feature
 to allow people like me behind firewall.
 I have used ProxyTunnel to access CVS, but I would prefer CVS to handle
 it instead of me having to depend on another tool.
