Ow, that's right. Perhaps the bridge authority doesn't need to take so
much pains to reject "not very changed" descriptors, since nobody is
cacheing them. Otherwise, we'll need to do something like suppressing
publication until we have configured (or not configured) our transports.
Perhaps that's a good idea in any case.
