Comment:

 At a glance, I think this is useful. I am a little worried that we may end
 up needing more info, because the STREAM NEW events don't have a circuit
 id yet, and #8641 also has the assumption that the first STREAM event on a
 new circuit is the top-level domain (which is not correct).

 So, in short: yes, this is what we want the control port to do with SOCKS
 u+p. But we may also want it to do more, too.

 Most likely though we won't finalize this until October, due to the
 Firefox 31 rebase work.
