[Psi-Devel] Feature Request: Proxy management

Welcome,


It would be nice to see an option to change connection proxies from one 
place. Today, it's more that an nuisance to change connection proxies 
for all the accounts. An example may explain that better:

Imagine that I use Psi on a notebook and travel with it between two 
different networks, one with proxy, other without it. I have configured 
proxy for all my accounts and in order to migrate Psi from one network 
to another, I have to:

1. Stop Psi from connecting.
2. Open Psi|Manage accounts.
3. Select each of my accounts and
    a) Click Modify button.
    b) Go to Connection tab.
    c) Select proxy from drop down list.
    d) Press Save button.
4. Press Close button.
5. Connect Psi.

This means that I need 4+4N mouse clicks (where N is a number of 
accounts I use) to change proxies.


What I would like to see is an additional place to manage connection 
proxies - like a dialog similar to Manage accounts dialog, with a list 
of all accounts and a drop down list for each of the accounts to quickly 
select a proxy (or turn it off). A global setup for a connection proxy 
(which would change proxies for all accounts at once) would be nice, too.


Kind regards,
