Comment:
#10165 is related. So neither "localhost" nor 127.0.0.1 should work in
Tor Browser because of possible leakage? (Also in the comments to #10165
that led to this ticket, why is an (alleged) online banking site trying to
open those connections to 127.0.0.1?)
Is the goal here that a user-provided numeric IP address won't generate
warnings? (on the assumption the user knows what they're doing?)
