[tor-dev] Enhancement for Tor 0.3.4.x

If its just a wishlist I would love to see

1. More multithreading for Tor.

2. new technology against traffic correlation/confirmation attacks by
adding some mixing features like I said long ago:

Relay operators with great RAM set the flag mixing for their relays.
These relays could be used as normal or mixing relays (delaying packets,
mixing them and sending more noise data maybe?). Tor clients will have
to specify if they want to build a normal circuit connection (fast) or a
mixing connection, slow, but more anonymous.

3. a config value for forbidding that all nodes in a circuit be from the
same country (to make traffic analysis harder..., some countries like UK
seems to be using it already).

4. An easy way for people to setup a home relay from their computer? For
Windows users? As more and more users get access to Fiber with symmetric
speed, the slow speed and asymmetric problem is not here anymore. IDK.
