I agree that it might be useful to document in the Additional Software
docs that some applications need to be run via torsocks. I'll let our UX
and documentation person decide on that.

I'm not aware of torsocks being unreliable. It's used in Tails for many
applications and I use it myself for others and in my experience when it
