 We should provide onion services with the option to distinguish their
 anonymous users from each other, and also to handle those clients in a
 clinical way to do diagnostics, rate-limiting, abusive client blocking,
 etc.

 One proposed way to do so comes from an old tor-dev thread which suggests
 we assign a virtual IP to each client based on the circuit ID:

 I2P seems to have implemented a derivative of this idea. I wonder how it
 works for them:
