Ironically, that's how Freenet worked back in the "old days" (build
499).  It seems the developers are convinced that Freenet can and
will be run on every computer, so nobody will ever have to use
*.allowedHosts.  They're consolidating everything into a single
port (Matthew's been beating the drum about moving :8889 into :8888
as well, and :8890 is already gone).

On the other hand, this move is actually good for newbies, because
most Windows users will probably never figure out that there are
other ports to connect to besides the "Gateway" one that they can
get to from the rabbit in the tray.  And yes, it is convenient to
have all of the diagnostic information in one place.

On the gripping hand, one could put extra menu items on the rabbit
in the tray.
