Replying to [comment:8 teor]:
> Deferring this change - it's not clear it's necessary, and the current
behaviour is acceptable:
> * fallbacks contact the authorities when bootstrapping, or other
fallbacks if all authorities are inaccessible
> * fallbacks contact the authorities when updating their consensus, or
other directory mirrors if all authorities are inaccessible
(... or when looking for certs and (micro) descriptors that they don't
currently have, right?)
