 In general the control spec is pretty good about saying what event
 attributes indicate. One exception are stream purposes which are
 completely undocumented.

 https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/blob/HEAD:/control-
 spec.txt#l1411

 {{{
 atagar at morrigan:~/Desktop/tor/torspec$ grep -R "UPLOAD_DESC" ./*
 ./control-spec.txt:      Purpose = "DIR_FETCH" / "UPLOAD_DESC" /
 "DNS_REQUEST" /

 atagar at morrigan:~/Desktop/tor/torspec$ grep -R "DNS_REQUEST" ./*
 ./control-spec.txt:      Purpose = "DIR_FETCH" / "UPLOAD_DESC" /
 "DNS_REQUEST" /

 ... etc...
 }}}

 See the StreamStatus above for an example of a nice mapping between
 attributes and a description.
