Comment (by cypherpunks):
If i pass traffic to a
{{{
SocksPort IPv4Traffic IPv6Traffic OnionTraffic NoDNSRequest
}}}
user can expect still use this relay? they are still providing rare exit
bandwidth. make use of it as far as possible?
client needs somehow know, the exit cant resolve dns. so that it does not
choose to attach a stream with hostname to it. just like it checks
exitpolicy to see if it would with usually Support connection target
address:port
it would be nice to mark this exit as BadDNS or something. to let client
know, not to choose it while using hostname targets. but in any other
case.
