Bug Description
First of all - great work on the local provider - works really well!
One feature I'd like to see re-introduced (juju had this a while back I think) is the ability to use a local proxy such as squid-deb-proxy or apt-cacher-ng; the use of the cloud image really reduces startup times - use of a local proxy would reduce charm install times for users on low bandwidth connections considerably.

Linked my bare attempt. This sources /etc/default/lxc for a MIRROR setting and then sends that via cloud-init 'apt_mirror' setting, which is exactly what the ubuntu-cloud lxc template does.
If you install apt-cacher-ng in the host and then set
MIRROR="http://
Then it will just work.
