Browsers and .onion names

Now that we have RFC7686, there's a new requirement applicable to HTTP clients:

"""
Applications (including proxies) that implement the Tor protocol MUST recognize .onion names as special by either accessing them directly or using a proxy (e.g., SOCKS [RFC1928]) to do so.  Applications that do not implement the Tor protocol SHOULD generate an error upon the use of .onion and SHOULD NOT perform a DNS lookup.
"""

Is anyone aware of a browser that does this or plans to do so? 

I've raise an issue for 7230bis:
