#22778: Exit relays dedicated to onion only navigation

-------------------------------+------------------------------
Allowing exit relay operators to set up their exit node to only allow
onion traffic and not allow access to the surface net could drastically
increase the amount of available exit nodes. It would drastically reduce
the risk from running one of these onion exit nodes because all the
traffic is encrypted at all times and no malicious traffic would come out
of the onion only exit node. This could also make it much safer for people
in oppressive countries to host these nodes with reduced risk. If this
would be implemented in a much larger amount of exit notes would come
online, this could possibly increase anonymity by makeing it much harder
for a attacker to compromise a large percentage of the exit nodes because
of the larger number of exit nodes.
