In Lion, CFNetwork has an agent that provides access to proxy credentials. WebKit doesn't need to participate in retrieving or storing proxy credentials. The symptom of not using AuthBrokerAgent is that a number of confusing dialogs and sheets appear once you configure a proxy. There can be an AuthBrokerAgent dialog for system services like MobileMe or for Safari itself (as it downloads safe browsing database), Safari sheets for requests coming from WebKit, and Keychain dialogs asking whether Safari can access keychain items created by System Preferences or by AuthBrokerAgent. <rdar://problem/10423024>
