Thank you Tom. It's very clear. But that wasn't the question. Because I don't have a second machine. Because I travel daily and I don't intend to depend on a second machine. Because I have quite a light laptop. And I won't be able to run two virtual machines on it. Even one is quite a lot of work for my computer. I know I can use Tails. And install what else I need. But the idea was different. The developers are trying to keep TBB as slim as possible. Every other app or extension means extra hours for an already overworked team. And they are right. They have the responsability to deliver up to a certain level. In my case, the restrictions are far lighter than for a man fighting the system. So I am willing to take some extra risk for some extra confort. And I guess there are many out there just like me. But I hope I'm no fool. So I want to be able to do my own testing. And, according to the documents somebody would provide, others could evaluate the risks as well. Your solution, in my case, is bad. That only pushes all trafic through Tor. Nothing more, nothing less. In my case I can survive a DNS leak. But the apps tell a lot on somebody. Geolocation. System identification through OS, computer name and so on and so on. With your solution I can be identified in a public place in no time. At least Tails doesn't expose me to that risk.
