Comment(by mikeperry):

 It appears Iran has just blocked the directory authorites, which may
 require us to distribute a list of super-stable dir mirrors to clients
 anyway. So I'm thinking we might even go for gold on this one.

 If we design this right, we can protect the dirauths from DoS by allowing
 them to write iptables rules to block contact with anyone but eachother
 and the list of approved dir mirrors.
