I'm of the opinion that it may be worth adding code to pin relay identities to IP addresses on the DirAuth side so that consensus weight and flag assignment gets totally reset if the ORPort IP changes, but if there's too much churn already it may cause more trouble than it's worth.
I hope such code will not be added, because it renders relays on dynamic IPs basically useless. In the past ~week only there were >1000 fingerprints (<3% cw fraction) using more than one IP address (in that timeframe)
I'm somewhat torn on the whole key pinning thing, because I think an individual operator moving their relay around is sort of ok (though in an ideal world the consensus weight should get reset and rapidly re-measured), but giving away the private component of a relay's identity key is putting users at risk, and is behavior that should be discouraged if not outright prohibited if possible (and key pinning would be a heavy handed way to rule out this sort of stupidity). -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
