I just realised my entire comment revolves around a lack of
standardisation (in Ubuntu, Gnome and KDE, and firefox)

* No "primary source" for the data (I vote NetworkManager -- it already does 
WAP/WEP/WPA)
* No definition of dealing with non-alphanumerics (Must read URL specs)
* No standard WPAD library (make new -- what deals with JavaScript?)
* No standard HTTP/FTP network code that takes care of proxies (make new)
* No standard "enter your data" dialogs.  Some dialogs miss "ignore proxy for" 
or miss "automatic proxy".
