Comment (by arma):

 I'd suggest not overthinking this one. We need to know whether the bridge
 is Running when we're writing out a networkstatus document for export to
 bridgedb -- which already happens essentially on a timer, right? Does
 anything else actually use that value right now? There might be some
 subtle interactions where Stable and Fast et al are based on which bridges
 are Running, but even there, I'd push us to investigate what actually
 consumes this info, and avoid adding complexity for no real improvement.
