Connect through Proxy Server

Marko
Users in some parts of the world are required to connect via proxy servers. I use a 3rd party app for this but native support should definitely be added at some point.
Fields needed: No proxy/system proxy/manually specify
Proxy type (HTTPS or SOCKS5), server URL, port.
Then a checkmark if the proxy requires authentication. If checked, user should enter username/password.
I've attached an example photo.

Thanks for the idea Marko. We'll have that in mind.
There are couple of experimental features (one of them being S3 "convenience" encryption proxy) which we internally haven't agreed about, but they may be actually a good place to place this feature in.
The truth is that we're fully allocated until Q3 2023 with all of the remaining features, so it's unlikely this will be looked on this year.
What 3rd party app can you recommend before this gets implemented?

I'm using Proxifier which I highly recommend for sending different types of traffic (from certain domains, apps, etc) to different proxies. There are probably free options if someone just wants to specify a single proxy for their whole system.
