 > > a) This design should not leak too many bridges. A user should not be
 able to get too many bridge addresses just by clicking checkboxes and
 dropdown menus. For example, with the naive implementation of this design,
 a user would be able to get N normal bridges by default, and then he would
 be able to get some more IPv6 bridges when he clicks the IPv6 checkbox,
 and then some more when he plays with the drop down menu. How can we
 minimize the amount of bridges leaked with this system?

 bridges multiple times but with different GET values, so any addition to
 the UI should not affect bridge selection.

 Sorry if I'm misunderstanding you but are you implying that this ticket
 can be implemented with solely UI changes? How would that happen? Don't
 you also have to enable the `filterBridgesByIP6` filter etc. to get only
 IPv6 bridges from the backend?
