Running in proxy environment causes spinner

[databus23]

Trying to to access the corectl menu icon always gives a busy spinner in my corporate network.
We have a mandatory http(s)_proxy and no direct internet connectivity.
Seems like some hanging network call is blocking the UI thread, which is not good in general.

It works when I switch to a proxy-free internet-connected network.

Would be awesome if corectl could pick up the proxy from settings (not only static settings but also auto configured PAC-file based ones) for network calls.

Seems like its the update checks. When I start it in a proxy-free environment it continues to work in a proxy environment until I hit "Check for udpates" or restart the app.

Ok looking into this some more it seems like this comes from the shell scripts that are executed from the swift app.
When I add this snipplet to the top of some of the bash scripts the spinner goes away:

[ -f /usr/local/share/proxy_settings.sh ] && source /usr/local/share/proxy_settings.sh

I had to add it to the following files:

check_blobs_version.command
check_corectl_app_version.command
check_corectld_version.command
fetch_latest_iso_alpha.command
fetch_latest_iso_beta.command
fetch_latest_iso_stable.command
update_corectl_blobs.command
