Side-note: I think it is a false claim to say that "we pull this from
GNOME 3". If you market your own UX, it's your call to make it work. If
something this essential for professional use that worked in previous
LTS does not work in the next LTS, it's a clear regression and there's
no way out of it..

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?
