Comment (by teor):

 There isn't any existing part of the URL that can be overloaded for this
 kind of feature, because an onion site can use any URL feature:
 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL#Syntax

 Also, overloading the URL is poor UI. And it won't work when sites embed
 resources from the authenticated site.

 The menu item is a much better idea,
