A specific workflow for dealing with crap hotel/internet-cafe wifi..
- Create a tunnel to a specific host you know who's port will be blocked, e.g. cvs.drupal.org port 2401 (existing feature)
- Have it dynamically create an /etc/hosts entry for cvs.drupal.org that points to 127.0.0.1 (new feature)
- Optional: have the tunnel set to open when an application is launched, e.g. terminal (existing feature)
This way any time you can have all of your CVS commands to drupal.org work regardless of whether you have a tunnel set up or not.
BTW, I love Meerkat, thank you :-)

A few folks have suggested
A few folks have suggested automatic /etc/hosts updating now. It only really applies in cases where the port is over 1024 (as CVS pserver 2401 is) since Meerkat can't do privileged ports yet. I'll definitely keep it on the radar.

Thanks for the reply, if you can that'd be great, if not, it's not the end of the world :)
