normally one would have to start tailscale like so, in order to choose a specific exit node:

sudo tailscale up --exit-node=<exit-node-ip>

It's possible. I'll have to look into it. The UI doesn't really consider something like arguments to tailscale up at the moment.

Edit: After a bit of research, as I've never used the exit node feature before, it looks like it's possible to run tailscale up --exit-node=<ip> without bringing it down first. That potentially simplifies the UI. I'm thinking that putting a button on each peer to use it as one, as well as another somewhere to disable it, makes the most sense. If possible, the button should appear conditionally based on advertisement of exit node status by the remote peer.
