- It should allow me to select if I want to donate only to nodes that
have the Exit flag. Running an exit is way more involved (and often more expensive) than running a normal node, and I think it would be good to give folks the option to target their donation in this way. And perhaps encourage it as the default donation mode.
- It also already seems to have GeoIP information, at least on the
country level. There are all sorts of interesting selectors that could be done with this. You could donate to relays in countries in inverse proportion to the number of relays they have, to encourage jurisdictional diversity, for example. Or more simply, just pick a country. This one is admittedly less cool and more complicated to figure out than just the Exit vs non-exit thing, though. (Do you also weight countries per-capita? Per internet user? Per Tor user? etc).
You already seem able to do stuff like, filter based on country and Exit status, and then donate only to those nodes that are listed.
