Subject: no_proxy support in browsers

The ``no_proxy'' environment variable patch exists for the X version of
Mosaic. Are there plans to standardize this and implement it in other
browsers?

With my switch from NCSA+Lagoon to CERN I have lost a little flexibility.
With any browser other than a no_proxy patched X Mosaic the proxy becomes
an all or nothing affair.

Thanks,

Neil.
