(platform/OS should probably be All/All, but I'll leave that to TPTB)

Under NN4.77, it is possible to create a "no proxy for" entry of the type

www.foo.com:81

which means that the proxy will be used for accesses to www.foo.com(:80), but
not for access to www.foo.com:81. This is useful/necessary in some firewall
configurations, if one doesn't want to hack up a .pac file.

This does not appear to work in mozilla. It should, if only for
ease-of-migration reasons. At the moment I have to constantly switch back and
forth in the prefs dialog.

(apologies if it does and I'm just too stupid to figure out how, but I asked on
n.m.u.general and got no positive response)
+4xp.
This is a really good catch.

Yeah, please set someone Hardware/OS to All/All.

Finally read the code, and saw Darin's fixes for this via bug 80918. Also did
some simple per-port block testing.
