Description Lee Smith 2011-07-22 18:55:53 EEST

Consider this snippet which sets the HTTP proxy for the application.

   proxy = QNetworkProxy(QNetworkProxy.HttpCachingProxy, "www.proxy.com")
   QNetworkProxy.setApplicationProxy(proxy)

Is it more "Pythonic" if we could pass a urllib2 ProxyHandler? Is it even
possible?

   proxy = urllib2.ProxyHandler({'http': "www.proxy.com"})
   QNetworkProxy.setApplicationProxy(proxy)

Unfortunately it's not possible because each library have different and
incompatible APIs.
