Anyway to do this in Qt, so for Macs as well?

No, there is no such way on Windows. For starters, the most common way to do so only works for outgoing HTTP traffic. FTP, NNTP, or Doom 2 will not be affected. Secondly, most webbrowsers copy the proxy information from WinInet/Internet Explorer (which you happen to assume is in the registry). Changing the original doesn’t update those copies. Furthermore, quite often in companies the proxy will depend on the destination (google “proxy.pac” for details)
