So... a comment about the lack of a vetting process is immediately followed by a fix with no explanation, nor any testing or user acceptance. I don't think so, as stated there are plenty of Proxies in the world and I've recently discovered that proxy.pac files are vary much a part of corporate

The solution for me, using xfce4, was to logout and into gnome-shell. Then I could change the setting... Using gconf-editor didn't work, the option was checked when I looked at it in gnome's control center under mouse. When I loged back into xfce4, all was/is good. xev reports ctl as it should.
