Comment (by asn):
Replying to [comment:16 dgoulet]:
> @asn, agree on `HSFETCH`, I think we should implement it on the "we need
it" so we avoid bloating the control port with unused command.
>
> All in all, (1) we need to extend `HSPOST` to accept an onion address or
a base64 encoded identity pk (not sure which one is ideal) and (2) I would
think that only doing plaintext validation is enough which is what the
HSDir will do anyway.

instead of a base64 encoded identity pubkey. Now is a good time to make an
argument for the base64 instead of the onion.
I think I also prefer the onion address over the base64 encoded identity
pubkey. It seems more natural to me, and something that more people are
exposed to.
Also I think it's fine to only do plaintext validation (aka the thing that
HSDirs do).
Onwards!
