Probably not:

* it makes their IP address public,

Why not encourage them to run bridge relays instead, if their

fast enough?
Good idea. We are waiting for snowflake bridge transport to be ready and
we plan to enable it by default on Whonix Gateway. Its optimal because
no port forwarding is needed or changes to firewall settings (because
VMs connect from behind virtual NATs).
