Re: [tor-dev] HTTP-requesting browser extension WIP (works in Firefox, not in Tor Browser)

I started trying to write a Firefox extension that makes HTTP requests
outside of the proxy settings. I have one that works in Iceweasel 24.3
and does the Host header trick used by the transport. However it doesn't
work in Tor Browser, and I'm looking for some insight as to why it might
be so.
The source code of the extension is in the "firefox" directory of
git clone -b extension https://www.bamsoftware.com/git/meek.git
Instructions on how to try it are: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Building_an_Extension#Test.
I also pasted the important JavaScript code at the end of this message.
I looked at this for a few minutes but ran out of time for today.
When I dump aStatus in your onStopRequest function, I get 2152398890
which is 0x804B002A which is NS_ERROR_UNKNOWN_PROXY_HOST (see
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Table_Of_Errors).
I am not sure what that means but it sounds interesting.
