Still, I think that an investigator might indeed want to know whether the behavior of the relay is different now than it was at the time of the incident. For instance, there would be no point to complaining about exit traffic emanating from a relay that *was* an exit, but isn't anymore. And a relay that was only an exit for a brief window of time, that happens to coincide with an incident, should be suspected to have been hacked.
I don't think this is information ExoneraTor should provide.
I agree that the investigator might need to know the differences in the configuration of the relay between "now" and "then", but ExoneraTor isn't a config diff utility. There are tools available to confirm the current status of a relay, and I don't feel we should be duplicating this functionality again in ExoneraTor.
