Comment (by nickm):

 We could have a new "ExitNode" flag, defaulting to "auto", and say that:
   * if ExitNode is 1, you're an exit node.
   * If ExitNode is 0, you are definitely not.
   * If ExitNode is "auto" and you have a non-reject *:* exit policy set,
 you are an exit node, and we issue a warning.
   * Finally, if ExitNode is "auto" and you have no exit policy set, you
 are not an exit node.

 This last case is one I don't like, since it would break all exit nodes
 using exactly the default exit policy.  Are there very many such nodes?
