Comment(by proper):

 Replying to [comment:16 ioerror]:
 > It seems to me that the _easy_ way is to have a shim binary component
 and just run it. That isn't the cleanest way, I guess. A feature for
 0.2.4.x, perhaps?

 Would that support multiple HttpPorts and stream isolation?

 Would each HttpPort require one internally opened SocksPort to forward to?
 (Not implicating that this is bad.)

 > It seems to me that the _best_ way is to have Tor do the entire thing in
 a thread or internally in some other way. A feature for 0.2.4.x or
 0.2.5.x, I guess.

 How much more effort would that be from your perspective?
