Hi, created a PR for this:

https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/53424

Nobody have this issue/urge?
@Juergen: as you are our 'Windows'-man ;-) do you see an issue with this (defaulting to 'Use Default Proxy'?)

Regards,

Richard Duivenvoorde

Hi All,

Currently a fresh install/profile has 'Use Proxy for Web Access' UNchecked.

I propose to set it CHECKED and then 'Proxy type' to DefaultProxy (all
see Network Settings)

This means that if you are in an environment without proxy, it will
not be in your system environment, so will not be used.
While if the admins setup the proper proxy, it will also 'just work'.

Anybody aware of a reason to NOT do this?

Background: working at institutions/companies which often have some
kind of proxy enabled, I often have the hassle of making the users
aware on how to set the web proxy... (because they often want WMS/WFS
layers from outside the local network)...

If we would set it by default to "use system proxy" (for what I know
that is also how most browsers are working), that would solve a lot of
'web issues', while (for what I know) would not affect normal use
without proxies?

Anybody would have or see an issue with that?

Regards,

Richard Duivenvoorde
