Comment:

 I'm downgrading priority on this to normal. Please speak up if you think
 that's incorrect. I agree with pde's analysis. We're leaking the fact that
 the user is using tor + https everywhere, but both of those facts can
 already be discovered based on network traffic. We'd still like to fix
 this but I don't think it's critical.
