I had another thought - I think we should enforce private repository blocking here, to prevent leaking to upstream public module proxies. |

Which did also lead me to wonder whether we should be implementing a full proxy...but I think that's a question for another time. |

Actually... https://github.com/goproxy/goproxy is explicitly designed to be embeddable, and has an extensible caching interface. Let's do some due diligence around whether this would be worthwhile to embed. The advantage this could give us is the ability to cache private repositories. |

Sounds reasonable to me, did we want to merge this as a currently working thing and I can explore the embedded goproxy to replace it? |
