Comment:

 Thanks Nick! Added
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/stem.git/commit/?id=353200c Stem support
 for the new fields]. Spec's almost perfect, only a couple minor
 questions...

 {{{
 "identity-ed25519" NL "-----BEGIN ED25519 CERT-----" NL certificate
        "-----END ED25519 CERT-----" NL

     [At most once, in second or first position in document]
 }}}

 Above the 'router' says it's at the start and appears exactly once. How
 can identity-ed25519 be in the first position? Is there a reason we care
 about its position in the server descriptor? If not then might as well
 just say "[At most once]" like everything else.

 {{{
 "id" SP "ed25519" SP base64-encoded-ed25519-identity NL

   [At most once]
 }}}

 Lets merge this with the above entry for 'id rsa1024'. Can
 microdescriptors and router status entries have multiple 'id' lines? This
 makes it sound like it can but Stem assumed from the rsa id line's wording
 that it wouldn't.
