Comment (by virgil):

 Then we can teach single onion services to advertise their single-hop
 nature in their descriptors, and tor2web and similar clients to build
 multi-hop paths to intro and rendezvous points for those services.

 Totally support this solution.  If clients can detect which domains are
 single-onion services then tor2web-mode can be made to simply add an
 another hop for those domains.  Seems solid to me.
