Isn't this just plain dangerous? If someone did enough traffic analysis to
suspect that our node initiated an onion-route request for a particular
document, then they could back up their evidence with a request for that
document to our node with a htl of 1. If the onion started at the client
however, then our node would never have even seen the data, so a request to our
node for the suspected document would probably be negative.
