 Replying to [comment:14 arma]:
 > I think there is no need for such a ticket until we live in a world
 where there are many diverse DoH servers.

 One useful talking point to convince a diverse set of DoH servers to exist
 is to point out that the Tor project is ready to use DoH to do DNS
 resolution, but isn't recommending it yet because they want to see more
 operators.

 If we could get #7829 resolved, then we'd have a more viable story to tell
 about why DoH wasn't necessary, but for now, DoH or DoT over Tor looks
 likely to provide the least-leaky form of DNS resolution possible for full
 anonymous DNS queries.
