Comment (by teor):

 Replying to [comment:4 yawning]:
 > Blindly truncating down addresses assuming the shorted format when doing
 the comparsion probably leads to odd things happening to existing deployed
 HSes that happen to have a stream of `a`s at the end.

 There are a few spare bits in prop224 HS addresses, one of them could be
 used for "short address". But I can't see a way of fixing this with the
 current address format, because it uses all its bits.
