Because the function that parses client auth credentials saved on disk (parse_auth_file_content()) is not future compatible, there is no way to add support for storing the nickname on the disk. Hence, nicknames cannot persist after Tor restart making them pretty much useless. In the future we can introduce nicknames by adding a new file format for client auth credentials, but this was not deemed worth doing at this stage.
Tor protects your privacy on the internet by hiding the connection
between your Internet address and the services you use. We believe Tor
is reasonably secure, but please ensure you read the instructions and
configure it properly.
