[tor-relays] Mozilla-Middles losing guard

[lpwzi9i84 at use.startmail.com]

right, cause of that i thought about splitting the total mozilla- 
bandwidth through 10 relays insted of 12 relays could raise bandwidth 
per server above the guardlimit to hold it more constantly. but i would 
belive if this is not requested by consensus. longterm wight seems not 
to be affected cause of gaining or losing guardflag. ...but what we 
want are nonmalicious guards, right? so maybe it could make sense 
anyway.
