------------------------------+----------------------------------
 We started referring as OnionService instead of HiddenService, would it
 make sense to make `OnionService*` torrc parameter synonym to
 `HiddenService*` for all torrc options, so that one can use:

 {{{
 OnionServiceDir /var/lib/tor/my-web-page
 OnionServicePort 80 127.0.0.1:80
 OnionServiceVersion 3
 }}}

 `HiddenService*` parameters will of course still work, and continue to do
 so, in order not to break any existing torrc config files. Then we can
 simply update the manual, if we want to ditch the '''HiddenService'''
 code-name.
