Title:
  gnome-network-properties sets $http_proxy incorrectly

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

  In gnome-network-properties, I select:
  - manual proxy configuration
    * check the box: use the same proxy for all protocols
    * Type the HTTP proxy address: proxy.utbm.fr
    * Type the HTTP proxy port: 3128

  Then, since my proxy requires authentication, I hit "Details" button and I:
   * Check "Use Authentication"
   * Provide my username and password

  Then I press "Close" to exit Details dialog and gnome-network-properties dialog and I open a new terminal:
  > echo $http_proxy
  http://proxy.utbm.fr:3128

  Although it should be:
  http://username:password@xxxxxxxxxxxxx:3128

  Note that this worked just fine in previous Ubuntu releases (v9.04 for
  example) and it is broken since Ubuntu v9.10.
