Isn't this already easily achievable with ssh? with 'ssh -D[port] foo@somehost' ssh will act as a SOCKS server.

Added to that their official client has heaps of functionality I have no use for, and wireproxy does everything I want for this usecase with a comparatively tiny amount of code(5MB vs 400MB built). I started the evening with a wg-quick generated config that required root, and ended it using a simple unprivileged daemon that I can toggle easily.
