The first few are commercial products.  For open source solutions, Squid is
probably the most common and is integrated with many other products.  It
can do both forward and reverse proxying.

You're certainly welcome to use the Guacamole code to build your own
solution that includes this, but the Guacamole Project will not be adding
it, as it is considered out-of-scope for the goals of our project.

Why do you care to have the actual screenshots/images of the browsing
session recorded?  Usually for monitoring web traffic it is sufficient to
just record the URLs that users visit, and any data that is passed between
the user and the web server (either up- or down-loads).  There are many
products that already accomplish these goals without actually recording the
exact screens the user is seeing.

Thanks for your reply. "I think this would be a killer addition."
"There are plenty of other software products out there that do this", but I
do really wonder which one can record the screen?

No, the project has made a decision not to try to implement HTTP(S) proxy
support.  There are plenty of other software products out there that do
this, and Guacamole can be used in combination with those, but the purpose
of Guacamole is to provide support for common remote desktop protocols, not
proxy all types of traffic.  See the following JIRA issue for further
discussion:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GUACAMOLE-57

Guacamole supports recording sessions for all of the protocols that it
supports, and playing them back or encoding them into a video.
