My biggest disagreement in this case is mobility. In an enterprise
environment forcing a .pac file, or forcing any proxy server, is not a
good idea. As soon as a mobile user leaves your network they can no
longer access the internet. Most users aren't savvy enough to handle
this. So, in my case I am forced to use IE/WPAD trickery.

And yes.. It's far from perfect!
