The only problem is that we cant figure out how to get HTTPS requests redirected from the ASA to the proxy (using WCCP). Does anyone know how this can happen?

Squid-2 doesn't support any form of HTTPS "interception".

I could probably be twisted to implement a basic tunnel just for supporting
intercepted requests (so you can do very basic ACL processing on them.)
