Comment (by neumann):

 alternatively to my suggestion above it might be better to introduce a
 lists of IP-Adresses/Server names which should not use the global proxy
 settings. QGIS could use a pattern matching to see if the WMS request
 starts with these addresses/servernames and if not use the proxy.

 This would perhaps be the easiest way to distinguish local from remote
 systems, where local machines shouldn't use the proxy and remote machines
 should. One could extend the proxy tab in the QGIS Options dialogue with a
 "proxy exceptions" list-management option where one can add, edit and
 remove servers, similar to the WMS/WFS dialogues.
