Comment (by iwakeh):

 Well, actually the "validAfter" from the referring microconsensus is
 passed on.  Thus, the new functionality would change something.

 In general, there should be a better solution for the micro-desc handling.
 Couldn't a @valid-after tag be prepended to the microdescs?

 Otherwise, the sync-mechanism will have to parse microcons in order to
 determine the appropriate date.
