  * milestone:  Tor: unspecified => Tor: 0.2.4.x-final


Comment:

 This looks reasonable; I like the table-driven approach.

 I wonder whether it wouldn't make sense to have the GETINFO values
 constructed from the table; I'd say "not necessarily", but if not, we
 should add a comment to the table saying that whenever we add a new value,
 we need to make certain to add it to GETINFO signal/names.  (Otherwise
 we'll forget to add new values to signal/names)

 Right now Tor 0.2.3.x is in feature-freeze, so I'm marking this for merge
 in 0.2.4.x once that branch is open.

 Thanks!
