Comment (by mikeperry):

 One more thing to note for future work: It looks like you're only picking
 the most recent circuit in use here. We should create a UI improvements
 parent ticket that (among other things, depending on feedback) creates a
 "more info" button if more than one circuit was used for this SOCKS u+p.

 One of the situations we need to be careful about is exit node tampering.
 If people are relying on this UI to report misbehaving exits, we want them
 to be able to be certain about what nodes may have been involved in
 providing data for the current page.
