Good point.  We scrub TCP ports before publishing bridge descriptors,
but Onionoo could at least report supported transport names in its docs.
 I just opened #8747 for this.  Thanks.

I'd say a stable address is important for a bridge.  Bridge clients
cannot compensate bridge address changes manually, so the bridge user
would have to go find a new bridge.  Of course, if you don't have a
stable address around, running a bridge on a changing address is better
than running no bridge at all.

Thanks,
