I like you vision and it aligns very well with my long term plan for
post-0.11 times (design and implementation of the "automated builds and
tests" task).
I just want to emphasize that since tails-greeter and persistence
finally is here we really should finish all the things that essentially
have been in a "wait until tails-greeter/persistence is done"-state.
Some of these are rather trivial [1] but some are (at least potentially)
a bit more involved [2]. Personally I'd like to see a relatively early
0.12 with as many of these bits and pieces in place as possible.
[1] Controls for activating Windows camouflage, disabling java script,
disabling microphone etc.
[2] Bride mode? macchanger? Persistent Tor data dir? Saving/loading
tails-greeter settings/sudo-password when persistence is enabled?

I have expressed interest in this, but it seems it was forgotten.
Consider yourself pinged :).

For the record I've run 0.2.3 since january, and several Isolate*
options for a month, without any noticeable issues.
Cheers!
