Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It seems that there is currently no way to specify a proxy for a container. The only way to do so is by installing the Firefox Multi-Account Containers extension... which somehow defeats the purpose of having containers integrated into the browser.
Describe the solution you'd like
I'm not sure about the technical aspects involved in this, but an ideal solution would be to expose the toolbar button that allows managing the container settings such as the proxy (those are not available through the settings panel).
When you add the extension to Firefox, this is the button that gets added to the browser toolbar (which is missing in Waterfox):
Through that button you can access the advanced settings of your containers, and set a proxy for them if you need to:
Describe alternatives you've considered
So far the only workaround is to install the Firefox Multi-Account Containers extension. It's quite easy and it only takes a couple of minutes to set up. But if you are integrating this functionality into the browser (which I think is truly great), then it shouldn't be necessary to install an extension to use its features.
