Should I make testnet support optional yet? This would allow for the
creation of real darknets. Testnet nodes allow developers to log in
remotely and fetch logs, force log level to minor, keep the last 1GB of
compressed logs, regularly upload status to a central monitor, and
cannot talk to non-testnet nodes.

0.7's memory usage is sufficiently low that IMHO many people may well
run both testnet and real darknet nodes. So hopefully it wouldn't be a
huge drain...?

The problem is that 0.7 does not yet have any real security...
- Fproxy does not filter anything.
- Connection setup is vulnerable to MITM.
- Requests are vulnerable to a whole range of attacks.

So the question is, should I keep testnet forced to "on" for the time
being?
