Comment (by ilf):
We are aware of the issue. I think the advantages outweigh the occasional
inconvenience:
1. We get more users to use onions, because they will use them even when
they would not know about them.
2. We get more users to use TBB, because they will use TBB to handle onion
links. See the real-world example I encountered above.
3. We circumvent the delegation of trust that is X.509 as much as possible
in favor of the more direct system of trust that are onions.
