Comment (by cypherpunks):

 This enhancement is developable.

 Let's assume we talk about capable (>10Mbit/s uplink) and always online
 tor nodes on end-user ISP links (e.g. dialups with forces IP change on
 daily,weekly basis by ISP)

 In intermediate-term future we will see live rotation/moving IPv6 network
 prefixes provided by ISP dhcp/ra, for preventing long-term privacy
 identification by always online end-user links with same network prefix.

 These nodes will never receive the STABLE flag and may not operate at full
 line capacity.

 if STABLE flag means always reachable at same given IP address,
 we need a new flag UPTIME for respecting long-living tor nodes with
 changing IP addresses.

 << open topic is the weight and technique design of such an UPTIME flag >>
