Comment(by nickm):

 >Am I correct in the belief that options->ExcludeExitNodesUnion_ should
 always be maintained as the union of options->ExcludeNodes and
 options->ExcludeExitNodes?

 That's the intended invariant, yes.

 > Re: 1094, I think the choice of default behavior to exclude unknowns if
 the user wants any country excluded, but include an option to change it,
 is probably the right thing.

 I tend to agree.  Right now, there are 7 nodes in ??; so unless our geoip
 coverage degrades a lot, it's not much hardship to exclude {??} whenever a
 user says "ExcludeNodes {tv},{nu},{pn}".
