 While looking at Torbutton patches Mike committed last night I realized we
 are not isolating FTP requests to the URL bar domain. This does not only
 lead to top level FTP requests not showing up in the circuit display but
 rather to all embedded FTP requests sent over the default circuit. I fear
 there are quite a number of risks involved in this design that give a
 malicious website(s) ample chances to correlate user traffic at least.
