Great, thanks! I think there is a feeling that it is somehow an
"enterprise" feature, and so is often left out.

Otherwise, will dig more into porting Tor to "Gonk":
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox_OS/Platform/Gonk

and perhaps providing Tor native as an optional update package:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox_OS/Building_and_installing_Firefox_OS/Firefox_OS_update_packages

The real question is, can Tor run in the background as a general service
to multiple apps (as on Android), or will it have to built into each app
(like on iOS).
