Comment:

 Sounds useful, though rather in the nice-to-have category.  Setting
 priority to minor.

 A patch implementing this feature would do two things:
  - Add two new options to `compass.py`, e.g., `--non-exits-only` and
 `--non-guards-only`.  The script would first check that these options are
 not set in combination with `--exits-only` or `--guards-only`,
 respectively.  Maybe we can use some optparse magic to have these options
 set `options.exit_only` and `options.guard_only` to false, rather than add
 new options.  In the next step, `ExitFilter` and `GuardFilter` could
 accept the value of `options.*_only` and filter out the right set of
 relays.
  - Add the radio buttons as suggested above for off/yes/no and pass the
 right thing to the underlying script.
