New description:

 At the moment, flashproxy-client takes a bunch of command-line arguments,
 that determine how it registers and talks to the bridge.

 These should really be done in the Bridge line (and passed in via SOCKS
 arguments), since the argument values may change per Bridge. These
 include:

 {{{
 --facilitator, --facilitator-pubkey
 --register, --register-*
 --transport.
 }}}

 I would argue that the CLI arguments be deprecated. I would favour
 complete removal, but AIUI it is required for compatibility with older
 versions of Tor.

 This may require #10671.
