Re: [tor-dev] Tor's default behavior for ed25519 identities

That is great.

One thing which could help identifying the bugs faster: Tor gives too
much importance to ed25519_master_id_public_key (if it doesn't see
this file, it will generate a new unrequested identity regardless if
it has a valid signing_cert and signing_secret_key and/or even if it
has the ed25519_master_id_secret_key unencrypted).

These commands would be useful as well: --getpubkey; --encryptkey;
- --decryptkey; --newpass; --gensignkey.
