Yeah, that's the GNOME proxy configuration, I believe that's all stored
in dconf (the replacement for gconf) in your GNOME session.
NetworkManager doesn't currently interact with that at all.

Right, because it's stored in dconf; look in your home directory
instead.  dconf has a facility for administrators to provide default
settings for situations like this, so that's what I'd look into.
