From comments from zab on irc, think that a connection can be used period. It no longer matters if its inbound or outbound. Think this should be possible now and should not be too difficult to implement. We could just open a connection when a new node is added to the routing table. This might even have some pluses on non firewalled nodes... Is it really this simple?
