Comment (by gk):

 Some comments on Part 3 (which looks good to me):

 1) "The filterFunction should expect two arguments:
 filterFunction(aChannel, aProxy)": you probably just meant `aChannel` and
 `aProxy` being those arguments.
 2) "Returns a zero-argument function that will unregister the filter.": I
 wonder where this is going to happen? I think you can omit that as
 according to MDN:
 {{{
 All filters will be automatically unregistered at XPCOM shutdown.
 }}}
 That said, what I like to see getting unregistered/removed on shutdown are
 observers although I realize that the common style in Torbutton seems to
 be ignoring this thing... :) So, feel free to keep the observer for
 profile-after-change as-is.
