Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 43429

(Firefox :: Settings UI, enhancement)

Description

[Dave]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.2) Gecko/20060308 Firefox/1.5.0.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.2) Gecko/20060308 Firefox/1.5.0.2

Users that frequently switch back/forth between firewall must go through a
tedious 6-step process for each switch:

Tools -> Options -> Connection Settings -> <SWITCH> -> Ok -> Ok

A "quick-switch-proxy" feature would allow the user to easily switch between
the various connection settings.

This can be easily implemented via a new Toolbar icon which drops down the four connection options and then Reloads upon making a switch.


Reproducible: Always
