 Many hidden services use the hidden service design for its incidental
 properties, such as end-to-end encryption, self-authenticating names, and
 usability properties of knowing you're going through Tor. They suffer from
 the performance and robustness issues of hidden services when (maybe) they
 don't need to.

 We should offer a way to run a Tor hidden service where the server-side
 rendezvous circuits are just one hop.

 Step one is to finish the proposal.
