Scenario Typing WebTunnel pluggable transports directly
Steps
When I configure some webtunnel bridges in the Tor Connection Assistant in hide mode without connecting 0.000
# We could actually click to Connect to Tor, which would exercise a slightly different code path, but:
# - this would use the real tor network, on which we expect more problems, so let's avoid
# - "Configuring WebTunnel with QR code" is already testing webtunnel bridges
# So let's not
Then I can click the "Connect to Tor" button 0.000
