> There appear to be 140 issues regarding proxy configuration.  None of them appear to have been adequately dealt with.
> There should be a solution, internal to Maven, preferably in the settings.xml file, that allows the user to either automatically, or at worst with a -P profile argument, to switch between proxies and mirrors.
> It seems the easiest way to achieve this is to allow proxies and mirrors into profiles, the same as properties and repositories are now.
> USE CASE:  I am presently dealing with an environment where company A has a mirror, proxy, and VPN access; company B has a mirror, proxy, and VPN access; and the user may be working from either company's office, either company's VPN, or from home without using either company's resources.
> Just making proxies and mirrors acceptable in profiles would go a VERY long way to solving this problem.
