Comment (by meejah):

 Two points:

 - for ADD_ONION, yes a similar key-format would be good. Since the prop224
 keys right now are binary-data I don't believe that will work **at all**
 in the control-protocol since AFAIK encoding isn't explicit anywhere (e.g.
 everything must be ASCII as far as I can tell) so e.g. base32, base64 or
 hex encoding would be way more likely to work with existing controllers.
 Also easier for people to copy-pasta

 - it would be Really Great if there was a way for a controller to discover
 if version3/prop224 services are supported in the connected Tor (e.g. a
 "getinfo"); checking version-numbers is tedious and IMO prone to failure
 and weirdness.
