 Somebody (possibly nickm or arma) asked for it. I guess they didn't really
 have a particular use in mind yet. Maybe, back at that time, statistics?
 ;)

 > Also, I don't think `--dump-bridges` does what I want for a number of
 reasons.  1) I want to learn about changing assignments as soon as
 BridgeDB loads new bridges, not when an external script is running.  2) I
 want to learn about assignments at any point in time, not only the most
 recent assignment at the time of syncing data.  3) I'm more interested in
 the fingerprint than IP:port.

 Ok. To close this thread of discussion: After IRC conversation with
 karsten, it seems the two features 'statistics' and 'dump bridges' aren't
 really meant to merge.
