Comment:

 What's the point, links to HSes are already encrypted/authenticated.
 Beyond that, this feels like feature creep.  If people want to use TLS
 with a HS, the server that they're connecting to should be responsible for
 terminating TLS, not the tor instance.

 IMO `wontfix`, in that it will add a non-trivial amount of code, to do
 something (poorly, since this will scale like crap for now) that
 ultimately shouldn't be the tor daemon's responsibility.
