 If "Transparent Torification" in Proxy Settings is enabled I'd expect do
 directly access the Internet without Tor (if no iptables rules redirect
 the traffic to a TransPort).

 Steps to reproduce:
 1. open torbrowser
 2. click the onion
 3. select preferences
 4. select "Transparent Torification" (radio button)
 5. select "OK" (nothing happens - the windows does not close)

 6. close the window and torbrowser

 7. open torbrowser (the onion sign shows a big "X" in front of it)
 one would expect that Tor is not enabled
 8. open a website to check your source IP (i.e. checkip.dyndns.org)

 expected result: browser should show a non-Tor exit IP address.

 actual result: browser shows a Tor exit IP address

 (This test was not done at an internet connection that is also hosting an
 exit node)
