Using KDE5 Plasma proxy settings (or likewise in Firefox)

Is there a way to make Firefox use socks5 proxy settings from KDE5 Plasma network settings, like Chromium does?

There is a very powerful option in that settings which makes exceptions list reversed, so proxy is used only for the addresses in the exceptions list and all other addresses use direct connection.

Or, is it possible to do such reversed exceptions list in the Firefox proxy settings?

That does not work. Maybe, Firefox does not consider KDE5 proxy settings as system.
