It would be nice to release 1.7.1 version with only bugfixes and no new
features.

I discovered that with QGIS 1.6-1.7 WMS connection never uses proxy
user/password authentication, this is a big problem in corporate
environments. I filed the bug #3844. The bug appeared after the rewrite of
QGIS connection management (see this: #3912 it was fixed, but now it is
broken again).
