Comment (by s7r):

 Thinking some more about this, maybe we can forget about descriptor
 priority downloads because on the longer term we won't need it and it will
 just complicate stuff for us. If I recall correctly (please confirm) atm
 we are trying to make '''all relays directory servers using BEGIN_DIR on
 ORPort''' which means Guard == DirGuard, so clients can first of all,
 download the guard descriptor directly from the guard itself and all this
 whole dance is avoided.
