I've seen so far: it still does much too little! I'd love to
have an HTTP proxy that takes a set of regular expressions to
match against URLs that are permitted to be fetched from a
protected web server and denies everything else.

I believe you can do this with the HTTP proxy on a watchguard firewall. I've done similar regexp on URLs to complement the IPS and antispyware on the box so I can do zero-day attack blocking as soon as I know enough about the malicious file to define an expression.
