    Using polipo with a modem or a mobile connection
    ------------------------------------------------
  
  Polipo will go on- and offline automatically whenever PPP (modem) or
  other network connections are established or brought down. You can
  specify on which type of connection this behaviour will occur by editing
  the file /etc/polipo/options and setting the method option to the
  appropriate value, i.e. `method ppp'.

For some reason the scripts to handle this were removed, while the
documentation and config file were left. 

Personally, I'd find this a useful feature, especially for PPP.
