 Seems like upcoming PTTBBs will be using the new 3.x TBBs that include
 tor-launcher. This is awesome!

 This means that we also have a chance to make a nice usable UI for
 pluggable transport clients. We should think of how we want our users to
 interact with pluggable transports, and design the interface accordingly.

 For example, should we expose the users to pluggable transport names? Or
 should we try to hide those funny names (obfs2, obfs3, scramblesuit, wtf?)
 from the users, and only expose a higher level interface?

 We should also consider the BridgeDB interface while doing so, and make it
 fit nicely with the tor launcher interface.
