please allow a single default jail.local to be used in one or any Tor
service port configurations, including hidden service port
configurations.

then also allow each distinct configuration (IP:port, unix_domain,
etc) of any Tor service configuration to be blocked individually.

the latter is very useful for power users / multiple onion service
operators who use service isolation intentionally to mitigate concerns
of directed attacks, denial of service, or related risks.

(there might be a better way than a sane default, with optional
per-endpoint limits; that's my favorite approach to this question for
now.)
