Comment:

 Sweet. Maybe the Doobie isn't so harmful after all!

 I'm still pretty sure its privacy properties make it unfit to replace
 Firefox Tor Browser at this stage, but if it obeys proxy settings and
 doesn't leak state from shared plugins/other browsers, and is careful
 about the disk, it might not be a terrible thing to use, if you only use
 it to visit one website at a time.

 P.S. Impressive stress test of Trac's comment length.
