Comment (by nickm):

 Updating.  To do the right solution here, we'd need to make it so that we
 use our existing evdns backend for asynchronous hostname lookups whenever
 we're also running about a hidden service.  Then we could launch a lookup
 for the hidden service whenever we connected there.

 On the other hand, we might want to make this feature RSOS-only, since
 doing hostname lookups in response to user requests for a '''hidden'''
 service seems like a good way to risk leaking.
