I second this, if review is needed on an appropriate design I'd be happy
to help double checking it. So far things that came out about proxies
over the last few years:

- Per application setting shall be possible (GLib has that)
- Preventing proxies per application shall also be possible (GLib has
that too)
- System wide setting shall be possible
- Per network profile setting shall be possible
- User and password handshake shall be possible (Not sure what we have
right now)

A lot of that has been improved through Dan's and other work on GLib,
though we did not progress much on getting a better configuration
scheme. Right now we support per-session, configuration, which is never
exactly what we want.

With the network profiles in place now, we could attach settings to
profiles. This would already allow crossing the user boundary, as
network profile may be system wide. Then the question will be to check
if settings applied regardless of the network are really useful or not.
We could also consider per-route proxy settings, instead of simply
depending on an ignore-list (the opposite).

cheers,
Nicolas
