Comment (by yawning):

 Hm, I'd need to look at the conflict resolution stuff.  I assume the ideal
 behavior is "non-conflicting as long as at least one of transport,
 ip/port, fingerprint is different".  This is sort of a moot point because
 existing 0.2.7.x behavior is going to be preserved (As in, internal
 address/ports specified on a bridge line do not get rejected).


 Replying to [comment:2 nickm]:
 > Basically, having the "destination address" implicit and the "proxy
 address" explicit was probably a mistake, and we kinda have a transition
 plan, if we ever get around to making it happen.

 *bangs head on keyboard* I still think the current model is fine.
