Comment (by arthuredelstein):

 I'm posting three patch files for review. The first two are for tor-
 browser.git, and the last is for torbutton.git.

 For now, the SOCKS username is set to the URL bar domain, and the password
 is set to '0'. If we decide to create a "New Identity" button for the URL
 bar, then that button can increment the password (i.e.: '1','2','3'...)
 for each identity change.

 In TorBrowser, to see the SOCKS username/password assigned to each
 request, set ''extensions.torbutton.loglevel'' to 3 and open the Browser
 Console.

 To confirm that tor is isolating circuits by  URL bar domain, you can
 include the following settings in torrc:

 {{{
 AvoidDiskWrites 0
 Log info file /path/to/your/logfile.txt
 SafeLogging 0
 }}}

 Then call `tail -f /path/to/your/logfile.txt`
