Changes (by serene):

 * keywords:   => snowflake, cupcake
 * priority:  Low => High


Comment:

 Increasing priority on this now because of imminent snowflake alpha -- we
 need to increase the capacity of the snowflake network, and this would
 have a huge impact on distribution of snowflake proxies. We should
 definitely not be limited to plain http sites, especially once
 cupcake+snowflake is happening. Will try to find more time and/or help on
 this soon.
