Bundling the Tor software with any coin is also generally not a good idea or 'best practice'.

Presenting all users with information and allowing them to make an informed choice on how they want to connect is the better option.

It is already possible to use this coin 100% over Tor (just like you can with Bitcoin).
darknet.conf (example)
Code:
listen=0
port=989
proxy=127.0.0.1:9150
maxconnections=8
onion=127.0.0.1:9150
addnode=y5kcscnhpygvvnjn.onion:989
addnode=5bmhtjvn2jvwpiej.onion:989
addnode=pyfdxkazur3iib7y.onion:989

addnode=f7j2m26rptm5f7af.onion:989
addnode=gtlqzb5zbws5di7g.onion:989
- which would connect you to (available) addnode=.onion's inside the Tor network and allow for your wallets connections to also exit to other clearnet IP nodes / masternodes.
Code:
listen=0
port=989
maxconnections=6
onion=127.0.0.1:9150
onlynet=onion
addnode=y5kcscnhpygvvnjn.onion:989
addnode=5bmhtjvn2jvwpiej.onion:989
addnode=pyfdxkazur3iib7y.onion:989
addnode=ok3ym5zy6m5klimk.onion:989

addnode=f7j2m26rptm5f7af.onion:989
addnode=gtlqzb5zbws5di7g.onion:989
- would connect you to only (available) addnode=.onion's inside the Tor network - which is the most 'anonymous' / private way to connect, as your connections never leave the Tor network.
Using socks port 9150 in your .conf enables connectivity through the Tor Browser Bundle, right out-of-the-box !

Users who don't want anonymity or privacy features might instead look to use the litemode=1 setting, which completely disables obfuscation mixing in the wallet.
~ In exactly the same way that many different groups of people and individuals use the Tor network for anonymity, you need all of these aspects in-the-mix for a healthy balance of privacy, security, anonymity and good connectivity.
The more masternode operators that can run as 'Dual Stack' nodes (and are able to publish their own addnode=.onion address), the better the diversity becomes for increased privacy and anonymity - for all users that require said functionality.
