This excludenodes thing has been no end of trouble. The root problem is
that it's a feature that absolutely none of the developers use.

I wonder if that means there are similar problems with other features
that no developers use.

In any case, Sebastian started a trac entry for this one:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/1929
wherein he starts out by listing a reason that we shouldn't fix it.

Please add more pros and cons to the trac entry.

(I guess the angry rants can stay here. ;)
