Is it possible to disable/enable the proxy connection on a tab-by-tab basis in Firefox?

I can access the internet with the proxy enabled, and I can access our internal servers with the proxy disabled, but neither configuration allows the other.

I have a feeling that Firefox 4's per tab profiles may permit this, but was wondering whether there was a way to achieve this on Firefox 3.6.13, perhaps through the use of an extension.

For the moment I'm making do with quickProxy (not QuickProxy which I've just discovered while trying to find quickProxy) which allows me to switch the proxy on and off for the whole browser, but would prefer something more fine-grained.
