Replying to [comment:4 yawning]:
> Blindly truncating down addresses assuming the shorted format when doing
the comparsion probably leads to odd things happening to existing deployed
HSes that happen to have a stream of `a`s at the end.
There are a few spare bits in prop224 HS addresses, one of them could be
used for "short address". But I can't see a way of fixing this with the
current address format, because it uses all its bits.
