Comment (by cypherpunks):
This feature probably has very limited value. It's trivial for any scanner
to simply use more circuits. Many targets likely have some anti-scanning
defenses anyway, so scanners need to distribute scanning in the first
place.
Is there any evidence that this would be useful?
This feature will expose Tor state to the rest of the system and enable
new and easier ways for attackers with system access to perform circuit
tracking.
