 Launcher to determine whether a configured bridge is now listed as a
 public relay? On the other hand, it sounds like using regular relays as
 bridges is also a feature some people may legitimately use (at least for
 testing).

 If the relay is in the public consensus, it's not a bridge.

 > Also, is there a default Trac owner for tor tickets like this one? It
 probably does not make sense to leave this assigned to tbb-team.

 Removed the owner.
