One thing I used the old controller library for is:

- Create a bunch of circuits, possibly using Tor's default circuit
  creation algorithm, but usually by specifying an explicit list of ORs.

- When a new stream is created, attach it to a (cleverly selected)
  circuit.

How would I do this in stem?  I don't see anything obvious in the API
documentation.

Thanks,
