Hi again Faidon!
I'd love to know more about the security issues in particular. Do please
tell?
However, it hasn't been a priority for me or my team for these reasons:
- As long as communities feel so-and-so about Tor
overall, and e.g.
block edits from Tor users, it's hard to justify us in the Foundation
investing more time into it,
Concur.
I would love to know more about what you see as the inhibitors - especially
so that I can go fix them for the internet-community-at-large - however
this decision is one for the Wikipedia community to take.
I'll still happily help if you decide "yes", but WMF should make and own
the decision.

ps: reminder, I'd love to know more about the security issues. :-)
