------- Additional Comments from Martin Robinson <mrobinson at webkit.org>
I feel like this is still just a work-around. Soup knows how to integrate with
libproxy -- which is how we should be reading proxy variables. Even this patch
misses https_proxy, etc. We need to find a reasonable way to have Soup use
SOUP_TYPE_PROXY_RESOLVER_DEFAULT without reimplementing libproxy in the
WebProcess and without depending on Gnome libraries in WebKit.
