Worth mentioning that there is a proposal [1] for "single onion services" (read non-anonymous onion services) exactly for the case when you want to get only cryptographic identity and not anonymity. At the moment you can setup an anonymous onion service and destroy it's anonymity (the only issue is performance).
So for several months www.facebookcorewwwi.onion has been running a beta-test patch (by Teor!) to implement Single Onion Services.
It works fine, and provides comparable performance to accessing Facebook over Tor in the normal way / through via exit node; possibly even slightly faster.
