 So, it seems they're already supported in Stem, just not using that
 specific @type annotation.

 support or shall we wait until there's a need?

 If I had to guess in what order need will arise, that would be: bridge-
 pool-assignments 1.0, tordnsel 1.0, torperf 1.0, directory 1.0.  But it's
 hard to guess when that will be.  bridge-pool-assignments might be
 relevant soon, the others maybe not.
