The problem in the past with silvertunnel, coffee onion, java-tor, etc,
has been keeping it up to date with the high frequency of changes
occurring in tor master. This is why we chose to cross-compile for Orbot.

However, I think *someone* should start working on a lightweight Tor
javascript client now, just to see whether or not it is possible,
because I think it could have great impact.
