Not true.  WWW sites which wish to link to keys in Freenet should
ideally default to http://localhost:8081/ but allow this to be
reconfigured, see Freegle for an example of this.  This is somewhat
irritating as there is no-such-thing as a global cookie which could be
used by multiple websites.

Until FProxy supports SSL connections I can hardly suggest that people
connect to https:... now can I?

A robust anonymity filter may be the best all-round solution, even if it
is somewhat kludgy.
