Comment (by atagar):
For what it's worth stem's descriptor downloader *doesn't* use fallback
directories because they lack extrainfo descriptors...

This is fine. Tor doesn't need it (nor does it need the DirPort). However,
if you want the fallbacks to relieve DirAuth load from other sources such
as stem then these are both issues.
