Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Some more thoughts:

 - Since MyFamily requires mutuality, relays would have to include
 (hashed?) bridge fingerprints in their MyFamily or do you propose an
 exception in the bridge case?

 - If we do not require a mutual MyFamily agreement in the bridge-case.
 This would open a new attack opportunity: Attacker creates a bridge: list
 all exits except those that are operated by himself to force the client
 towards exits that are under his control.
