 Replying to [comment:12 arma]:
 > We can also deprecate ReachableDirAddresses for the same reason.

 > Though, a tiny gotcha: if we're wanting to warn about use of
 ReachableDirAddresses, notice that FascistFirewall 1, which we still
 should support, auto-sets ReachableDirAddresses, and we shouldn't warn if
 the only reason it's set is because of FascistFirewall.

 Turns out ReachableDirAddresses already has its own ticket: #19704. So I'm
 going to focus this ticket on just httpproxy and httpproxyauthenticator.
