I'm using the latest stable release of Firefox (34.0.5) and I see a "Remote DNS" checkbox under my SOCKS proxy configuration. Isn't that the same option in the GUI? No about:config tweaks needed? I would think so, but everyone seems to be giving the about:config business, so maybe I am missing something.

Most probably it has been added, my notes from this are from 2008 so it's hardly cutting edge! :)

Yes, that is the same option. Toggling the option in the GUI toggles network.proxy.socks_remote_dns in about:config. As default it is, is still off though.
