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-
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).
