    Another subtask idea for 'python tor client' project
    
    Neat idea from David so people can write a 'is my hidden service up?' check.

Once <a href="https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/17945";>ticket 17945</a> is merged v3 HS descriptor downloads will require a multi-hop circuit. This requires an understanding of Tor's <a href="https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/rend-spec-v3.txt";>hidden service</a> specifications, particularly the HSDir hash ring.</li>
       <li>Authenticate our ORPort connection, checking that ORPorts we connect to have the right key fingerprint.</li>
