Comment(by mikeperry):
For the browser tor test, sadly I sort of dropped the ball on #6546, which
would have given us a local, quick test in 0.2.4.x... Right now, all we
have is the check.torproject.org XMLHttpRequest test url,
https://check.torproject.org/?TorButton=true. Seee
https://gitweb.torproject.org/torbutton.git/blob/master:/src/chrome/content/torbutton.js#l980.
I am thinking that for TBB it is less important to verify you're actually
using Tor, especially every time.. It is perhaps something we can do once
after first bootstrap or something.
Or, perhaps all we need is a simpler test of the SOCKS port's existence..
But then we need to somehow check that the port 9150 is really a Tor port
and not something else...
