severity: wishlist

It would be great if all network primitives (open-network-stream and
friends) supported SOCKS.

There is lisp/net/socks.el.  Unfortunately the implementation overwrites
open-network-stream using defalias.  That is terrible.  Maybe
add-function could be used here?

There is a dependency on nslookup (socks-nslookup-host).  I would prefer
to have SOCKS support without relying on a stand-alone third-party
application.

Yes, that's a bug.

You mean add-advice?  Yes, that would be better at least.
