Bitcoin over Tor isn't a good idea
The bitcoin client has a fallback to blockchain.info when it detects a fork? What? I'm not sure I understand what you're saying.

A
client, not,
The
client.
Say you were writing a client in a different language or for another platform.

Saying I was writing a bitcoin client I would never use some 3rd party as a fallback. As soon as a blockchain fork is detected you stop all transactions and wait for it to be solved by the miners. No other way around it.
