Hi Green. Besides the things teor mentioned the DirPort also provides
easier access to directory information which Stem's remote module...

https://stem.torproject.org/api/descriptor/remote.html

... and curl can take advantage of...

% curl 128.31.0.34:9131/tor/server/all

> * relays no longer fetch documents using the DirPort (so maybe never).

Hope we can amend this to be 'relays *and* stem', otherwise DocTor and
quite a few things will be very sad. :P

Cheers! -Damian
