Comment (by infinity0):

 Hmm, actually thinking about it, we can get rid of "-addr" with only minor
 tweaks to what I coded. The reason I added it, is because it doesn't
 generalise if we want to represent a contextless (addr,transport) pair -
 removing the context (the client- prefix) would give us something like
 "=<addr>&transport=<transport>". But currently we do always have context,
 and the advantage with removing it is that we remain backward-compatible
 with old proxies, without any extra code.

 Let me know which option you prefer.

 Another tweak we could do is remove the prefixes from the facilitator
 response. It would add a little more complexity, but would follow the "no
 more information than required" principle more closely.
