I'm going to state my support for it here. I'm not a developer however I agree all exits should provide DNS from a local resolver (Unbound or similar) to get the exit flag.

I'd like to see 'working DNS' as a requirement for the exit flag.

If there are no major objections and if I'm able to find someone to implement it I'd like to proceed with writing a small proposal.

Would anyone be willing to implement it in tor?

This would be a feature for scanners, not little-t-tor itself, right?

there is a great ticket about solving this problem via self-checks: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/24014

exits will disable exiting once they realize they fail at doing DNS.

I believe it will cover most if not all of current problems, lets check again once this is implemented and deployed.

would be nice to have that in tor 0.3.5
