Comment:
To be honest, I'm against that because the whole point of torsocks is for
_all_ traffic to go through Tor and not being used as a "proxyfier" for
other things.
I believe `tsocks` was originally taken from some proxychains program or
something and adapted to only use Tor. So this feature doesn't have much
use in torsocks. Other software should be used for that.
I'm closing this but if there is ever a use case you could describe where
DNS should not be sent through Tor but the rest yes, please open that
ticket explaining it.
