Comment (by cypherpunks):

 The less use mode you said about...

 Situacion 1:
 On internet, connect <ip> is force override and no use domain layer at
 all. So nearest anlogue is new option 'DomainYieldToIPMap' for "regardles
 if domain mapped or not, if 'BEGIN domain' say back to us 'CONNECTED ip'
 then go check that ip exist in the ip MAP's, if so go rearrange redo the
 circuit underneath the scene to match ip map before pass stream data". The
 one more circuit making as needed is ok cost. Default: on.

 Situacion 2:
 The remaining one is simply to documen that BEGIN domain, just like tor
 RESOLVE domain, can backed by many ip's in dns but tor use only one, this
 leading to obvious of some CONNECTED ip's maybe not being in any ip map,
 so that split is ok thing to caveat note to the user.
