 The 3.1 Browser overlay section on network.security.ports.banned
 assumes that no one changes the default ports.
 The tor(1) man page and config documentation on the website
 gives those values as defaults but does not warn users about
 a torbutton dependency.
 Is there a way to have torbutton check (perhaps only on install)
 that the ports are as expected?

Comment:

 Bug from the toggle area. The functionality is long gone from Torbutton.
