Comment:

 I am fairly sure this is a duplicate of #11512.

 We discussed this a week and a half ago during the Tor Browser IRC meeting
 and the consensus was that rather than add a lot of complexity to Tor
 Launcher, we would try to hold out for the real fix (#8402).  But that
 means that people who need to use a proxy with TBB 3.6 will need to
 manually comment out the ClientTransportPlugin lines in Data/Tor/torrc-
 defaults (which is not good).

 I should have reminded everyone about this issue when I saw the candidate
 builds for 3.6 appear :(
