Comment:

 Replying to [ticket:17945 teor]:
 > Tor2Web clients make a one-hop connection to the rendezvous point.
 Rendezvous Single Onion Services also make a one-hop connection to the
 rendezvous point. (Single Onion Services expect a client to make an extend
 request to the Single Onion Service at the end of a 3-hop path.)

 to the RSOS descriptor?)

 The rendezvous point (and possibly the introduction point) could terminate
 the connection if it has a single hop on both ends. This seems to be the
 most correct option.

 RSOS descriptors could claim to be a RSOS, and then Tor2web can avoid
 connecting to the RSOS. But this provides a generic method for hidden
 services to block Tor2web. I'm not sure we want that, and I don't know if
 all Tor2web operators would enable the feature.
