I went through libpurple code recently and found that libpurple reads
directly into Gnome configuration (by calling command line tool
gconftool-2) for proxy settings. This require more testing and
investigation for sure, but It's clear that libpurple by itself (can)
gives some proxy support to Telepathy Haze.

Maybe I should start a wiki page that list known connections managers
and show what works, will work and what does not work ?
