> I'm now wondering if we don't want to use dir_server_mode() other
places, as well. In particular, currently the behavior is now different
for caching directory info, too.
I'm confused. Current / different as in "your latest patch", or "the
latest master"?

Maybe this is better than the old behavior? I'm thinking we should stick
with what we currently do unless there's a better reason for doing
something different.
It would be helpful to match the current behaviour for DirPort
directories, so that operators aren't surprised by this new feature. If we
feel there's a need for a change to directory caching behaviour in
general, let's do it in a separate ticket.
