transition to a new file format is not the best option. Will you remove it
when tor is upgraded?
Probably; would you like to open a ticket for that? This code will be
relevant until all earlier versions of Tor are obsolete, since people have
any time between now and then to update. Since 0.3.5.x is supported till
2022, we shouldn't remove it before then.
