Ubuntu Proxy Manager is a D-Bus mediated service that allows for managing system proxy settings via multiple backends (APT, environment variables and GSettings).
We request a FFe for this new source package (ubuntu-proxy-manager). As it's a new source package the risk of it breaking existing setups is non-existent as it must be explicitly opted into by users. The package is written in Go and benefits from an extensive test suite covering over 90% of the codebase.
Additionally, we would like to request a FFe for adsys where we added a Suggests dependency on ubuntu-proxy-manager. We have taken great care on the adsys part to maintain backwards compatibility and not affect users who do not install the ubuntu-proxy-manager package.

Installing the ubuntu-proxy-manager package on its own has no impact to the system. To benefit from its functionality adsys has to be upgraded and correctly configured.
