Comment (by gk):

 So, here is an interesting issue: If you load the website the first time
 the circuit display actually shows part of the onion circuit (the one the
 client controls) *but* the website still says that the content got loaded
 over the regular Tor circuit. This is true. What happens is that a second
 request is issued for the favicon which uses the onion in the alt-svc
 header which then updates the circuit display even though the content did
 not get loaded over the .onion. What should the display show here?
