In the first commit of the feature/tor-browser-bundle branch (commit
aad3cb3d) I set:

    pref("network.proxy.no_proxies_on", "10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12,
192.168.0.0/16");


I believe that is enough. At least in the current state of
feature/tor-browser-bundle I can access LAN resources.

Right, see #7951.
