Comment(by ioerror):

 I think the authentication would not be in Tor at all. The main question
 is about keys and Tor could easily just generate a key per TLS Control
 Port - similar to how we generate an onion key per onion.

 I'd be happy to write up a patch to the current control-spec or a new one
 entirely but it would mostly be about the actual Controller, not the
 Control Port, I think.
