I admit to being over 40, but I don't think I'm quite qualified to be called
senile. I prefer the title "seasoned" for my dormant sysadmin skills.
Skills which, truth be known, find it very useful to set http_proxy once in
/etc/environment and then have it used by all software on that host.

Getting the request module to respect http_proxy is certainly an upstream
problem. That wasn't my goal in filing this this bug.

This statement is dismissive of the de facto http_proxy standard.
