Comment:

 Ok, I implemented this in commit 6ba3a3d11bc1fb6a3415aa7363062bec1d6ac964
 of mikeperry/1.8-next in my torbutton remote:
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/mikeperry/torbutton.git/commit/?h=1.8-next&id=6ba3a3d11bc1fb6a3415aa7363062bec1d6ac964

 However, there appears to be a bug in our SOCKS username+password patch
 that is causing Tor Browser to always send "0" as the password, even
 though the SOCKS password is clearly being updated in the nsIProxyInfo.
 Arthur - can you have a look?
