Comment (by JeremyRand):

 I just chatted with Ghost from Electrum; it looks like they'd be likely to
 accept a patch that adds an RPC method that resets the connection retry
 timers, thus making it connect without waiting.  This would save some time
 compared to launching Electrum-NMC once Tor is connected, since Electrum-
 NMC takes a few seconds to launch.  I'm leaning towards this approach.
