 I know this is a pretty hefty feature request, but during the past two
 months of curating the TBB bridges, I have multiple times wished that such
 a feature was available.

 I'm asking for functionality, where if you visit a bridge (or relay) page:
 https://globe.torproject.org/#/bridge/FBD4950C1ACEE99E73A24AB2A6341A85A88ACB7B
 you could click a button and download the last (sanitized) descriptor of
 that bridge, or the last extra-info descriptor. Even better, have the
 choice to download the last week worth of descriptors, etc.

 This would be immensely useful during my investigations of "Which bridge
 doesn't have ExtORPort enabled" and "Why do metrics graphs look like they
 do". It would also be useful in the guard node analysis project, and other
 research projects.

 On the negative side, since Globe relies on onionoo to get its data (and
 onionoo doesn't provide descriptors AFAIK), it might not be easy to
 implement this feature. However, a ticket is never a bad idea, right? :)
