Comment(by nickm):

 I think it needs to be a per-connection thing in the protocol, not a
 global thing in the tor process.  Otherwise you need *all* of your apps to
 support this, or you can't turn it on.

 The most reasonable place for an app to signal its support here would be
 by grabbing an unused SOCKS5 authentication type code, and have clients
 advertise that type only if they support whatever extensions we want to
 add.
