azure mobileservice proxy authentication required

I'm developing a Windows Store app that stores data in Azure using Azure MobileServices. Everything is working fine as long as I'm not using a proxy but as soon as the connection to my mobile service goes through a proxy, I get a HttpRequestException: "The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required."

I am using an instance of MobileServiceClient class to connect to my mobile service.

public static MobileServiceClient MobileService = new MobileServiceClient(
        "https://xxxxxx.azure-mobile.net/",
        "xxxxxx"
    );

How can I make the Windows Store app use the default system proxy (like specified in LAN settings in IE) to connect to an Azure MobileService?

TIA

This is not the problem of Azure or Mobile Services, this is entirely the problem of using Windows Store apps with web proxies requiring authentication.

Microsoft acknowledges this problem but does not provide any solution for now except for white-listing the address you want to access so that it bypass the proxy call.
