There are three ways of fixing the dialog that spring to mind immediately: - Only use the proxy if GNOME is configured to use the same proxy for all protocols and this option is selected or an automatic configuration has specified a proxy for XMPP. - Change the text to "Use GNOME HTTP proxy" (which is mostly what the option is currently doing). - (better variation on the same theme) alter the dialog so that when HTTP is selected as the proxy type there is a check box allowing the GNOME proxy to be selected instead of the currently visible options. All of these would bring the function of the option closer to what happens. -- "You grabbed my hand and we fell into it, like a daydream - or a fever."
