There should be a checkbox in the "Network Proxy" app, which should set the proxy for other applications too. So if this checkbox is ticked, then /etc/apt/apt.conf, /etc/environment, /etc/wgetrc, and such other files should be edited to have correct proxy settings. This will make Ubuntu much more user friendly.

Use iptables rules to redirect http-related traffic to a proxy server. This omits the need for configuration on application level. Simply stay with the current configuration dialog, but make it configure iptables in addition.
