Comment (by teor):

 So I propose we do the following:
 * 0.2.9: check all documents published by relays
 * 0.3.0 or 0.3.1: a new consensus method where authorities refuse to vote
 for relays with non-ASCII descriptors
 * 0.3.2 (or whenever we use that consensus method): Authorities can reject
 non-ASCII uploads

 I assume "printing ASCII" means "space to tilde, tab, and linefeed" but we
 should also clarify that in the torspec.

 I'm not sure if it's possible to get non-ASCII content in a hidden service
 descriptor without memory corruption. But in any case, hidden services,
 HSDirs, and clients should reject that, too. I've split the HS part off
 into #19647.
