Build ID: 20130921004001

Steps to reproduce:

Under the desktop mode, went to options, advanced, network tab, connection, settings, and set my manual proxy


Actual results:

the proxy worked under the desktop; under the metro version, proxy was not used


Expected results:

proxy should have been used for both desktop and metro

Tested on 2013-09-30 on latest nightly. It looks like these preferences are not shared between the desktop and metro browser and this might be intended. Requesting information from Asa to confirm.

We didn't specify proxy config as a Metro feature. If we share a profile with Desktop, this might just work. If not, it's not implemented and probably won't be for v1.

candidates for the prefs mirroring module.

A quick test with this patch seems to be pulling the proxy settings from Desktop to the Modern UI.
