 Replying to [comment:19 nickm]:
 > Ack on NM1...NM2.  I think that for NM3, you're right, but we should add
 a tor_fragile_assert() there to make intent more clear.  (Or even
 tor_assert_nonfatal_unreached().)

 Yup. I see that as a refactoring also since this could imply to drop that
 intro version handler array because it's unused but we could actually make
 it useful also.

 > For NM4, the fingerprinting issue: The case I'm worried about is where
 we learn that an HS upgraded at the same time that some other view of the
 HS upgraded.  (eg, it's being used as a client too, and they're trying to
 keep the client identity separate from the HS identity, but both changes
 are observable.)  Am I being too paranoid here?

 Hrm... so yes, it's somehow a possibility. I'm unsure how you can tell if
 a client has also upgraded to 029+ thus correlate but if there is a way,
 it's a tiny bit possible.

 Middle ground here. arma proposed to merge this patch only when 224 gets
 in so we do one big transition. If we are OK with that, for which I'm ok
 with, let's push this ticket to 0.2.??? (224 won't be in until
 0.2.10/0.3.0 imo)?
