User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 MultiZilla/1.5.0.4g Build Identifier: As a laptop owner, I move between sites frequently. Unfortunately, selecting between different proxy providers is very clumsy, requiring me to type in the proxy location each time. It would be of great benefit if I could configure 'proxy groups' for different locations. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Office location 1: Open Browser preferences, go to proxy settings in advance tab. Edit settings. Start browsing. 2. Office location 2: Open Browser preferences, go to proxy settings in advance tab. Edit settings. Start browsing. 3. Office location 3: Open Browser preferences, go to proxy settings in advance tab. Edit settings. Start browsing. 4. Office location 4: Remind self to post an enhancement suggestion to http://bugzilla.mozilla.org. Open Browser preferences, go to proxy settings in advance tab. Edit settings. Start browsing. Actual Results: Became frustrated (again) Expected Results: 1. Office location 1: Open browser preference. If required, 2a. Select 'New proxy group' button. 2b. Name 'proxy group' (name added to proxy dropdown selector). 2c. Input information as usual. 2d. Repeat procedure if necessary. 3. Select from drop-down box the name of the 'proxy group' for office location required. I might get around some time to mailing a dev of quickprefs (or similar) to provide same.

Not a bug in the prefs dialog itself, but in a particular panel.
