Comment(by asn):

 Replying to [comment:4 chiiph]:
 > My comment in here will be similar to what I said in #6435. The simplest
 way for the user would be to have a transport combobox with all the
 transports, and have the user select one of those or "None" and then have
 everything else (in terms of GUI) be exactly the same.

 Hm, the checkbox approach makes sense. Although remember that a bridge can
 support multiple transports.

 transport are available.

 Hm, I'm not sure how vidalia.conf works. It seems that this configuration
 value would have to change every time a transport/proxy was added/removed.
 Are there any other vidalia.conf configuration values that require human
 editing in new releases? Who is doing this editing atm? Erinn?

 This doesn't sound like a bad idea for now, but maybe we should look into
 automating it for the future.

 > From the docs I assume we can't have multiple ServerTransportPlugin
 lines and "select" one for the configured bridge in torrc. Vidalia would
 need to add or remove STP depending on what the user wants. Does that
 sound right?

 Indeed, for every STP line a new transport(s) is started. You can't have
 multiple STPs but only some of them enabled at a given time.
