Wow. I've had a look.
Yes, I feel it's too much of a hack, but that's a mere feeling.

E.g. I don't like the fact this couples components shipped by Debian's
iceweasel (such as language packs) with components shipped by TBB
(such as the torbrowser binary). I'm not comfortable with adding (at
the binary level) to the inter-dependency mix we're in, and that is
hitting us right now.

Also, I guess this hack would require at least some more hours of work
to be in a releasable state. I would be a bit sad to see us put
efforts in there, while we can fix this problematic situation (with
option 3) in a way that - I feel - is more long-term'ish, or
contributing to it at least. But that is probably because I believe in
"iceweasel + torbrowser patches package" much more than in the
"integrate the wanna-be autonomous TBB's browser within a Debian
system" way.

If, for some reason I don't remember (sorry), option 3 is not an
option, then I think we might have to go with this hack, but frankly,
I would hate it.
