One weird idea: use hardware authentication (e.g. certificate smartcards) to enable
a VPN from inside to outside
(I said that that is weird, didn't I?)...

This is the dreaded Microsoft Proxy - using NTLM authentication  (compatible only
within pure MS environment). Now the fabulous Samba/Squid crew programmed a mode
compatible to that MS quirk. You need to use MS-IE and be authenticated against the
NT domain the proxy is querying, though.
