".onion tld RFC" - minor point, but all along we are trying to avoid a TLD
for ".onion".

URLs are nice for giving a reference, but there's still a need to curate
the data.  In particular, what if the torproject.org name registration
expires and is bought by someone else?

No, 2, 3 have roles as well as 7.  Not sure about 1.  But I really see
4,5,6 as not desirable.

This is the last call for the doc in the subject line.  If text there
helps, it should be worked into the draft in the subject line.
