Yes, glib-networking provides 2 gio modules:
- libgiognutls.so: Let GIO based applications access HTTPS (TLS).
- libgiognomeproxy.so: Let GIO based applications use GNOME proxy settings.
They're required at runtime, and optional (one may argue that HTTPS is a
must have feature though). Currently we add glib-networking to webkit
browsers's inputs (eg: epiphany, luakit, etc.) directly, and wrap it
with 'GIO_EXTRA_MODULES'. By propagated glib-networking in libsoup, we
can remove it from inputs of thoese web browsers, but we still have to
wrap them...
Maybe there is a way to hardcode glib-networking in libsoup so that we
can get rid of GIO_EXTRA_MODULES? (another gio module is the gsettings
backends dconf, which also need a user dbus-daemon user spawn its
backend service...)

I Agree with Leo. Raghav, could you look into if we can get rid of
GIO_EXTRA_MODULES for glib-networking or add a specified comment for
this comment (maybe: "For HTTPS and GNOME proxy support")?
Thanks!
