if you could structure streams such that the exit chosen could always satisfy both IPv4 and IPv6 to same named destination this could be delegated to the endpoints. note that depending on how the client is using Tor there may be multiple resolve requests, following by one or more stream exit requests, and exit policies or destinations (v4 or v6) may entail distinct paths across to different exits depending on IPv4 or IPv6 transit. put another way: you cannot assume exit requests will be by name rather than explicit address. best regards,
