It's amazing to see such a confusion about proxy supported or not in a ubuntu product !
Why put a system wide proxy option inside the System/Preferences if after that you don't use it in your own tools !
Please don't put any tools of your in Ubuntu standard distro if those tools dont' respect standards
And it should be stated clearly that if you have a proxy settings in a machine YOU SHOULD USE IT .
