Comment (by arthuredelstein):

 Replying to [comment:27 mikeperry]:
 > I am curious about the simplification changes unrelated to meek in this
 patch. Were those requested by mozilla? It looks like they disable the use
 of SOCKS username and password pref updates in the proxy service. Was this
 due to some potential conflict with the nsIProxyInfo members, or for some
 other reason?

 The simplifications were requested by Mozilla. On the other hand, I
 probably shouldn't have introduced those changes here as they are
 unrelated to this bug. So I will post a new patch shortly (after testing)
 with just the meek-relevant changes.
