Do we already have a Bugzilla for this?

Not yet, I started looking at it a bit ago but ran into 'perl(HTTP::Proxy)' not being in RHEL7 nor EPEL7.  But I can backport it myself, starting to do so now.

Ok done, I have your proxy.pl running.  All I see is:

error: File header size 963000419 exceeds size 130

Which is pretty much expected since we're returning corrupted GVariant data.  

Ok, right I see, it looks like then after removing the proxy, further upgrades continuously fail since we're trying to work on top of the partially fetched object.

This is a little tricky to fix because the whole point of saving the temp file is to resume partial downloads if we were interrupted, so I need to distinguish between "temp file is corrupted" versus "download was interrupted".

Also doing this did cause me to think of another issue:
