Some translations have a less-techy way of explaining what a proxy is,
and a default empty value should just be OK (people are expected to
install Debian by pressing Enter most of the time, right? :)). I'm not
sure we want to play with trial-and-error in d-i too much…

Tagging wontfix for now to allow for somebody to step up and say
otherwise.
