Comment(by arma):

 On further thought, it seems that returning a REASON_NOROUTE will cause
 all clients that haven't upgraded to fail to retry the stream, whereas if
 it's MISC they will retry.

 Does that argue for teaching clients to retry NOROUTE ends, both in
 maint-0.2.1 and in master, and then only later (say, when 0.2.1.27 is well
 established) starting to actually send them?
