I agree with that sentiment. Having recently used Ubuntu (and opensuse) on a connection that required proxy settings I was surprised to find that the "universal" proxy settings don't seem to apply to very many programs. It seems to me that it defeats the purpose of having a universal proxy setting if you still have to configure multiple programs individually.
