Very reasonable and I agree.
The GSoC Transport work gives people the option of using Tor without any
changes to the Freenet protocol.

You don't need to write a new Firefox plugin to do what you proposed.
The FoxyProxy addon can redirect browser requests to proxies based on
URL patterns. Optionally there's color indicators for every proxy so
users know what they are visiting.
Ask the Tor browser team to carry the addon upstream and include a
configuration file.

The initial use case is limited to darknet connections between hidden
services.

If we were getting a lot of complaints about Freenet being too fast,
too
easy to install, too easy to use, or not bloated enough, then bundling
Tor
would be a great way to solve all of these complaints.
Otherwise, it still seems like a really awful idea.
