Comment (by arma):
You might like the DisableNetwork torrc option (which the controller can
set and unset)?
That works if the controller can magically discern network state (like
apparently is possible on Android).
But you're right that in general, Tor only notices that the network has
changed by continuing to try to interact with it (see the various places
that call ip_address_changed()) and in some cases it could leak something
from its previous network behavior onto the new network while doing that.
