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-center, and the network-applet does not have
  the option to change the proxy.

  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).

  A screenshot of gnome-control-center is attached, showing the lack of
  network options.
