 While working on #20111, Kathy and I found a bug in Firefox's SOCKS socket
 support: special characters, including spaces, are not decoded before the
 configured path is placed inside a Unix domain sockaddr. This causes the
 SOCKS connection to not work at all when a Unix domain socket is used with
 a path that contains spaces (or other URL-special characters).

 We are working on a patch which we will also want to uplift to Firefox. I
 will file a Firefox bug later.
