 Replying to [comment:56 mikeperry]:
 > I think this new proxy filter API is a decent approach, and would be
 useful to many other projects. We should rebase it to Firefox31 and
 mozilla-central and try to get Mozilla to review it, especially for e10s
 support/performance.

 I figure we should see what Mozilla thinks about the approach first.

 I've submitted the two C++ patches to Mozilla and requested reviews:
 * SOCKS: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=122752#c66
 * nsIProtocolProxyChannelFilter:
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=436344#c15
