Comment(by mikeperry):

 There also appears to be an issue where you can also get proxy bypass even
 without using Unity when you release the dragged image into any non-Tor
 apps that decide to treat it as a url and download it. At least on my
 system.

 Does this mean we should break these urls? Turn them into tor:// and
 tors:// urls? Or remove Drag and Drop entirely? Something tells me Unity
 might be dumb enough to still do a non-tor DNS query even without a valid
 scheme...
