Comment (by warner):

 Note that this work depends upon a new Foolscap release which provides the
 socks/tor connection handlers in the right place.
 [https://foolscap.lothar.com/trac/ticket/242 foolscap#242] and
 [https://foolscap.lothar.com/trac/ticket/246 foolscap#246] are tracking
 these.

 For the server side, we're still looking at `tahoe create-server --tor`
 (which is mutually-exclusive with  `--location/--port/--hostname` from
 #2773), but with enough CLI arguments to let you set these `tahoe.cfg`
 values right away, because `create-server --tor` will need to use
 `txtorcon` to spin up a hidden service, extract the private key and onion
 address, then write both into some as-yet-undefined `tahoe.cfg` fields,
 where they can be read again at `tahoe run` time to re-create the server
 endpoint.
