Comment (by sysrqb):

 Some thoughts so I can make progress on this.

 Make a bridge's location in the ring is dependent on:
 1) its fingerprint and port number (or ip addr and port)
 2) a salt and the fingerprint
 3) <a better idea>

 The ORPort bridge instance must still contain a list of all transports and
 we will need to ignore all transports when we iterate over the dict when
 we dump the assignments to file (but this will be easy).

 I'm heavily leaning towards 1) with regard to how we distinguish the
 Bridge instances, until someone tells me this is A Bad Idea. Also, these
 changes won't be localized, this will require touching many parts of the
 code but they won't be difficult modifications.
