Comment (by s7r):

 Correct. We should leave `OutboundBindAddress` for the time being. This
 tor-dev thread confirms adding the algorithm to `OutboundBindAdress` would
 not work for at least this use case:

 https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2016-September/011429.html

 While applying the algorithm to `Address` as described in this ticket
 would fix it, and plenty more use cases. So, we'll leave
 `OutboundBindAddress` aside currently. I don't know, does
 `OutboundBindAddress == Address` unless configured otherwise?
