Title:
  Network proxy settings does not keep "DIRECT" value in apt.conf when
  set back to method "None"

Status in “ubuntu-system-service” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Network proxy settings in gnome-control-center removes
  Acquire::*::proxy::HOST "DIRECT" value when set proxy method "None".

  NOTE: Acquire::*::proxy::HOST "DIRECT" works as no_proxy for APT.

  How to reproduce:
    1. open network settings in gnome-control-center
    2. set proxy like the example below:
        * method - manual
        * HTTP Proxy - example.com:8080
        * HTTPS Proxy - example.com:8090
    3. press "Apply system wide"
        - confirm proxy settings are written in /etc/apt/apt.conf
    4. add the line below into /etc/apt/apt.conf manually
        - Acquire::http::proxy::server1.local "DIRECT";
    5. add the line below into /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/90no-proxy.conf
        - Acquire::http::proxy::server2.local "DIRECT";
    6. turn off proxy by set back the Method to "None" and press "Apply system wide" again.

  Expected to happen:
    7. the three lines below are removed from /etc/apt/apt.conf
            - Acquire::http::proxy "http://example.com:8080/";;
            - Acquire::https::proxy "http://example.com:8080/";;
            - Acquire::ftp::proxy "http://example.com:8080/";;
       but leave the lines below in /etc/apt/apt.conf and  /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/90no-proxy.conf as is to be useful for the next time.
            - Acquire::http::proxy::server1.local "DIRECT";
            - Acquire::http::proxy::server2.local "DIRECT";

  What happened instead:
    7. the three lines are removed and also "DIRECT" lines are removed.

  NOTE:
  "Apply system wide" for /etc/environment leave no_proxy value as is.
