.onion capsules?

Onion sites often have clearnet counterparts that send an HTTP header to inform the user agent that a hidden site exists; that way, the user can switch from connecting to the clearnet site through an exit node to connecting to the hidden service without any exit nodes involved.

Some way to inform the user agent to switch to the hidden version when available would be appreciated, since exit nodes are the weakest point of the Tor network. Without some way to automatically "upgrade" to the hidden version, users might end up accidentally using the clearnet version of the site.
