Oh well, it was quite well discussed before, three years ago!

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=158888

Quite an interesting discussion, too.  Sound like an agreement was found 
in order to fix the "problem".  But it seems they didi not implement it.

   The final comment was:

   Comment #7 was:

   So, weren't they supposed to rely on the blocked ports list, instead
of limiting Gopher to port 70?

   Well, votes are indeed lacking!

I guess this is because of Bug 71916 (only prot 70 is allowed). So this 
seems a
duplicate of Bug 158888 to me.

See also Bug 194220.
