 > Ugh; the $ should never be mandatory, and case should never get checked.
 That's probably a bug.
 Would you keep this report as a reference or would you like me to submit a
 separate one?

 > ns/id/node should cover everything that appears *in the consensus
 directory*, I think.  There should probably be alternate forms of it that
 match the complete set of nodes more completely though.
 The most logical thing, at least to me anyway, would be if ns/id/node is
 made "universal" so that it would pick and display information about *any*
 node, regardless of whether it uses microdescriptors or not.

 Same goes for desc/id/node as well - it should probably be made to work
 with all nodes, not just the ones which do not have microdescriptors.

 > Also, your description above is possibly inaccurate? I just tried both
 upper and lowercase for ns/id/* and md/id/*, and both worked.  The only
 thing I can see that doesn't work is providing the $ to ns/id/* .  If you
 find that there really is a difference between upper and lowercase, could
 you please attach a command log so I can try to reproduce it?
 Apologies, you are quite right - there is no difference between lower and
 upper case - just tested this again.

 > There's a fix for the $ thing in branch "bug7059" of my public
 repository; please test and review if possible?
 What's the url for that? I am willing to give it a go.
