Control: retitle -1 firefox-esr: in case of connection error, Firefox should
say whether a proxy is used

After network debugging in Firefox with Ctrl-Shift-Q, I've found
the cause: The server IP address is a proxy I'm using for some
domains (via a remote .pac file). So, it could be an issue with
the proxy for this particular host. In this .pac file, I can see:
else if(dnsDomainIs(host,".cambridge.org")) {
return "PROXY ist-proxy.inria.fr:80";
}
where ist-proxy.inria.fr has IP 128.93.162.74, which is the one
given by the network debugging tool.
Now, the issue is that in its error message, Firefox should have
told me that a proxy was used for this connection.
