--- Begin Message ---Package: tor Version: 0.2.3.25-1 Severity: wishlist This might be useful when one wants to use tor for the only purpose of accessing *.onion domains. This could happen because user isn't concerned about his own anonimity in this particular session, but nevertheless wants to access a service which has been banned by a totalitarian regime. A typical example would be http://jntlesnev5o7zysa.onion/ which doesn't necessarily involve any unlawful activity, but is regardless often censored by authorities. If it was provided somewhere in the system (e.g. /usr/share/doc or /etc), user could enable it right away by pointing his proxy.pac URL to it using "file://" prefix. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: kfreebsd-amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: kfreebsd-i386 Kernel: kFreeBSD 9.0-2-amd64 Locale: LANG=ca_AD.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ca_AD.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dashfunction FindProxyForURL (url, host) { if (shExpMatch (host,"*.onion")) { return "SOCKS 127.0.0.1:9050"; } return "DIRECT"; }

I agree that this can be a useful and valid proxy setting, but since we recommend people not use Tor stand-alone for webbrowsing, I think we shouldn't do this.
