            Bug ID: 222374
           Summary: Consider adding support for socks5h:// proxying
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Local Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKitGTK
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: contact+bugs.webkit.org at hacktivis.me
                CC: bugs-noreply at webkitgtk.org

Currently WebKitGTK (probably because of one library in the libsoup/glib-networking/libproxy stack) doesn't have support for socks5h, which means that DNS resolving through SOCKS isn't supported, which prevents usage of things like Tor to work properly (there is workarounds but I wouldn't really depend on that).
