Comment (by naif):

 mmmumble, the only reason i see that application would like to generate
 it's own private key is to be able to make "vanity name" with in-app rsa
 key brute-forcing.

 But i agree that, when that feature is not required, having Tor pre-
 generating the key make much more sense as it simplify the process.

 Btw ok, sounds like we'll need to load the baggage to fill out enough good
 wine! Will do that!
