Still no way to set exceptions to proxy settings in the network applet
in 12.04.

I would also add that with the previous network settings GUI, we had the 
possibility to create "profiles" for proxy settings. It was quite useful when 
you worked regularly at different locations, each with different network 
proxy... You just had to select the corresponding profile and everything 
worked. Now you have to change your settings manually each time you move to 
another location.
Looks like a regression to me :-(

Bug description:
  I can't found a easy (not-cli, at least) way of changing the proxy
  settings in Ubuntu 11.10. There is no option to change any network
  settings in gnome-control-center, and the network-applet does not have
  the option to change the proxy.

  I think that a GUI for changing the proxy is a must-have, specially
  since it was available in Ubuntu 11.04. Also, is my opinion that, at
  least in the long term, the proxy settings should be related to the
  network options, so a different proxy is set to every network
  (specially important for notebooks with are used in different
  locations).

  A screenshot of gnome-control-center is attached, showing the lack of
  network options.
