Comment (by yawning):
 Yes, the pt-spec has each pluggable transport (server) passing these back
 in a comma separated format, and yes, as far as I am aware little-t tor
 doesn't convert that to something that's actually directly usable by the
 client (which requires them to be space separated).
 As much as it sucks to have BridgeDB being the one doing the conversion
 here, it's the expedient thing to do (the alternative would be to make the
 changes in tor, which would put people who want to run obfs4 bridges in
 the position of "well, you need Really Bleeding Edge tor, compile it from
 source").
 As it stands this blocks obfs4 deployment, so we should come to a
 conclusion on the Right Thing to do.
