As far as I am aware, all of the techniques employed by these projects are already listed in the tickets under the "firewall" tag. (As an aside, Greg Hazel, who has offered to contribute one particularly sophisticated technique (#169), is one of the people who made BitTorrent.) The need at this point isn't to discover new techniques (unless of course I am wrong and there is something that we haven't thought of yet) but to code up the docs, tests, integration, packaging and so on that would be required to close one of those tickets.
