Comment (by pabs):

 Personally, I think the current behaviour is almost correct, after all
 just having a control port does not mean that someone will issue a command
 that will require a connection to the Tor network. The main issue is that
 commands sent over the control port do not affect the  roles and trigger
 bootstrap when needed.

 That said, I do not mind if you prefer to make the control port config
 trigger the client role since it would work for Debian's situation.
