-----------------------------+-----------------
There is currently a "synthentic" delay before upload hidden-service
descriptors. It would be nice if there was a "WAITING" (or similar) sub-
event to the HS_DESC events to tell controllers that.
For context, txtorcon listens to HS_DESC events when adding a new Onion
service (either via ADD_ONION or SETCONF) and bubbles this out to txtorcon
users as "progress" (txtorcon may also decide it needs to launch a new tor
instance, which is also bubbled out via the same progress API).
So for the 30 seconds (or whatever) of induced delay, there appears to be
nothing happening, and then you get 6 "HS_DESC UPLOAD" and (hopefully also
6) "HS_DESC UPLOADED" sub-events all "near the end".
It would provide nicer UX to have a "HS_DESC WAITING" (or similar) every
few seconds.
