Comment (by teor):
Replying to [comment:8 bugzilla]:
> @teor:
> Exactly. But relying on 127.0.0.1 led to #17901. You asked to research
the situation with localhost, results were written. It's better stop
trying to hack the technologies and warn users explicitly.
While I recognise the accuracy of your research, I do not agree with your
conclusions. If tor can make changes to be secure by default, we will do
so. It's part of the design philosophy of the project. If you want to
change that, the best way is via a mailing list discussion, proposal, or
research (and not this ticket).
I'll respond to your question about #17901 on that ticket.
