People run tor in many different ways, we should support them:

I tried getting the tor hidden service to run, but failed. Neither in the gui, nor --tor worked. Platform: Kubuntu 22.04.1 LTS x86_64

I think if tor works stable, it would be an easy way to access Specter on mobile (as a mobile wallet, e.g. to generate receive addresses), while specter is running in the background on the desktop computer:

  1. Install TorBrowser on mobile
  2. Scan QR Code for the onion URL.
  3. Done

AFAICT these three tasks are already implemented, therefore issue can be closed - unless I am missing something naturally.
