--- Comment #2 from Jessica Clarke <jrtc27@freebsd.org> ---
I'm loathe to add yet more dialogs to the mess that netconfig already is. Can
these at least be gated behind a "Do you need a proxy to access the internet?"
question that defaults to No?

Needing an FTP proxy also points out how antiquated we are in using FTP rather
than HTTP to download from the mirrors. Surely in this day and age we should
use the latter and confine FTP downloads to the dustbin of history?
