Comment (by cypherpunks):

 would it somehow possible to use relays without exit flag but exitpolicy
 set? so that we still can make use of them while dns is broken for some
 reason. (can be forced by 3rd party adversary to loose exit flag than by
 making it timeout dns requests) so that all exit connection streams with
 IP as Destination still can extend through brokendns relay without "DNS-
 Exit" flag?
