I need to be able to use winbox with a SOCKSv5 proxy I create with an SSH session..

what have winbox to do with SOCKSv5 proxy?? Winbox is only for conneccion to RouterOS devices.

You don’t know what a SOCKSv5 proxy is for, do you?
Have you ever used a “-D” option in OpenSSH?
For example I open an SSH session to the Mikrotik along with a SOCKSv5 proxy. So I can use WebFig with SSH encryption.
If winbox supported SOCKSv5 proxies, then I’d be able to use it securely over the internet.

As far as I’ve seen neither v2 nor the v3beta allow it..

Current RouterOS v is v6.xx (there are some that uses v5.xx)

It looks lilke Winbox is still a v3RC.

Is this a missing feature or am I missing something?

I’m pretty sure you are missing a lot.

I fear I am not alone, after all.

So, back to the original point, I think that there’s none. Isn’t there?
