 Kathy and I agree: if we are planning to switch to obfs4proxy's meek
 client implementation (which seems like a good option to us), we should
 change Tor Launcher to use SOCKS args with the meek PT that it spins up
 for Moat.

 Georg, is it worthwhile for us to do that work in Tor Launcher soon, or
 should we first resolve the "meek-client or obfs4proxy?" question?
