Comment(by asn):

 An idea here would be to have obfsbundles output some kind of unique
 identifier (maybe even the filename), which when inserted into bridgedb
 gives you some obfsbridges appropriate for your bundle.

 So for example, if you gave the identifier of the first bundles we
 released, bridgedb would give you only obfs2 bridges.
 If you gave the identifier of the latest pyobfs/flashproxy bundles,
 bridgedb would give you both obfs2 and obfs3 bridges.

 This way, users won't need to learn any transport names whatsoever. The
 drawback is that we have to keep bridgedb updated for every new
 obfsbundle.
