Comment (by karsten):

 Personally, I'd prefer bits over bytes, too.  But as a developer I prefer
 whatever is least confusing to users.  IMHO that means trying to be
 consistent with the rest of the Tor world, so count in bytes, not bits.

 And making this a user choice, only because developers don't know what's
 best, seems like a bad idea, too.  This is also non-trivial from a coding
 POV, I'd guess.

 I'd say let's close this ticket and save the discussion for a $beverage at
 30C3. :)
