Google Earth 6 can use proxy on Linux...
Google Earth 7 can use proxy on Windows, why Google broke it on Linux and cannot fix it is beyond my understanding.
Google Earth 6 got other issues (e.g. needs the old msfonts versus the new ttf-ms-win8 fonts) and doesn't show so detailed pictures and 3D buildings so new version is preferred.

Anyone found some workaround or patch for the proxy issue?

You could try: http://pastebin.com/89Qk4Yp7 to see where it's failing at.
Most likely the curl line.

@grayich, to use panoramio pictures properly you will have to use google-earth6 instead this...

Does the white background open instead of photographs for everyone?

Well, people often like to use the latest version just because it sounds nicer to have it, and hence it must be better.
But the thing is, if you don't use Google Earth to get a sense what buildings look like from the sky, or as a tour guide, you will be much happier with the stabilized version, because it's actually going to work.

Version 7 of google-earth always crashed for me on my arch 64bit, no matter if I enabled any of the 2 flags. I know that version 6 works, but I am not keen to go back to that.
This is a bit of an irony: I mean what keeps me from switching fully from Windows to Linux? Google! Yeah! By not providing for linux the same tools they provide for windows, like google drive (I know of some poor alternatives like grive) or providing low quality versions for linux (like the version 7 of google-earth)!
But thank you for your effort.

I will not update (for now) to the latest version 7.3.6.9326 because it crashes continuously for me.

Thanks, unfortunate timing then.
For reference, with Gnome shell / wayland I need to
