[tor-dev] Transparent proxying: automagically add firewall rules

Hi,

transparent proxying to TOR Hidden Services is a great feature of the 
TOR daemon when it comes to other applications/protocols than HTTP and 
surfing. It would also be great with privacy appliances (e.g. Mailpile 
using TOR as secure SMTP transport channel).

John Does have problems with such a setup because of the NAT firewall 
rules.

So I suggest the TOR daemon should automagically set the necessary 
NAT-rules on Windows, Linux and BSD when "TransPort" and 
"VirtualAddrNetworkIPv[4|6]" are configured in torrc.
