 Hi teor. I probably opted for that because that feature breaks the
 connection panel. If you connect to a tor instance with
 'DisableDebuggerAttachment 1' then arm disables connection resolution with
 the notice of...

 {{{
 Tor is preventing system utilities like netstat and lsof from working.
 This means that arm can't provide you with connection information.
 You can change this by adding 'DisableDebuggerAttachment 0' to your
 torrc and restarting tor. For more information see...

 https://trac.torproject.org/3313
 }}}

 Personally I think Tor's DisableDebuggerAttachment feature is buggy and
 should be fixed before incorporated, but that's an argument I lost four
 years ago. I'm removing the setup wizard in the next release so having arm
 default this way will be moot.
