Comment (by atagar):

 For what it's worth stem's descriptor downloader *doesn't* use fallback
 directories because they lack extrainfo descriptors...

 https://gitweb.torproject.org/stem.git/commit/?id=758f632

 This is fine. Tor doesn't need it (nor does it need the DirPort). However,
 if you want the fallbacks to relieve DirAuth load from other sources such
 as stem then these are both issues.
