Title:
proxy settings missing ignore list and "use this for all" flag
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Proxy settings is missing two essential features:
* ignore list
* "use this for all" flag.
This renders the whole feature unusable because in a normal company
environment you have to specify ignore list and you often (not always
but very often) use "use this for all" flag. I would call this a
regression and a blocker for migration from previous LTS releases.
Other than that it also misses "proxy profiles" feature that 10.04 LTS
had, which was used by many folks to quickly switch between multiple
proxies and direct connection. I would call this also a regression but
it is not a show stopper (although it is not a nice thing that it has
dissappeared).
PS I'm aware that you can work around the first two issues that I
mentioned with dconf editor but is that *really* the way how you
should do it in Unity UX?
