-  o Minor bugfixes:
-    - Refrain from needlessly rejecting SOCKS5 requests that contain
-      IP address strings when SafeSocks in enabled as this prevents
-      user from connecting to IP address they know without relying on
-      DNS for resolving.  Fixes bug 22461, bugfix on Tor 0.2.6.2-alpha.
+  o Minor bugfixes (client, usability):
+    - Refrain from needlessly rejecting SOCKS5-with-hostnames and SOCKS4a
+      requests that contain IP address strings, even when SafeSocks in
+      enabled, as this prevents user from connecting to known IP addresses
+      without relying on DNS for resolving. SafeSocks still rejects SOCKS
+      connections that connect to IP addresses when those addresses are _not_
+      encoded as hostnames. Fixes bug 22461, bugfix on Tor 0.2.6.2-alpha.
