Comment (by arthuredelstein):
I forgot to explain my last updates to Patches 1/3 and 3/3 on 2014-08-07.
The commit message for Part 1/3 is:
This patch adds an alternative to the nsIProtocolProxyFilter
mechanism, called nsIProtocolProxyChannelFilter, in which
a protocol proxy filter receives a channel object rather than
a URI. Access to the channel object allows the proxy filter to
provide proxy settings according to the URL bar domain.
In this version, I'm retaining the original nsIProtocolProxyFilter
interface, to avoid breaking SSL Observatory and any other existing
extensions. I hope this means it will be easier to get Mozilla to accept
this patch.
The new version of Patch 3/3 (DomainIsolator) implements the new
nsIProtocolProxyChannelFilter to get a reference to the channel and
thereby obtain the URL bar domain for tor circuit isolation.
