 Migrated from old trac:
 "Hi,

 I really like the new option in Vidalia to start a proxy application when
 Vidalia starts. But when I want to create a new pseudonym I click the New
 Identity button and I also restart my proxy (Polipo) to clear the cache.
 Because Vidalia starts Polipo in the background I have to kill the Polipo
 process manually or restart Vidalia to accomplish this.

 Could you please add a new right-click button along the lines of "Restart
 Proxy Application"? This would of course restart the proxy application and
 in the process clear the cache in Polipo and Privoxy as far as I
 understand. Many thanks"
