Automatic proxy settings for normal applications?

I know that Mustang and Tiger now support automatic proxy settings for applets, but why can't we also auto-import these settings from the OS browsers for normal applications? That is, if I'm running a standalone application, why can't Java check the registry (or whereever else it's stored) for the proxy settings and import them on demand?
Is there a big difference here between applets and normal applications?
Thanks, Gili

Yeah, I just recently found out about this and I'm in the process of migrating my application to Webstart. Although I still think this functionality belongs in core, not in Webstart. All applications, even non-Webstart ones, should be able to auto-detect proxies.
