Tremendously helpful writeup.  Thanks, John.

"One thing well" should be our mantra.  It's guidance I try to follow in
my own life.  Even when the box grows more functions, it's good advice--
when using it as a NAS, users shouldn't have to compromise on interface
or experience because the thing is also a tor node.

Bulletproofing is important but can only take us so far.  We have to
think hard about end-user support.  The usual "Find us in IRC and hope
nobody insults you." isn't sufficient here.

I'd love to hear ideas on how we support end users and prevent
early-adoption failure.

-James
