Thanks for the heads up, I've updated the ticket accordingly.

Please note that this is a low-priority goal for us, and I would not
hold my breath waiting for someone to implement it.

FYI it looks like we're going to stay with Vidalia a bit more.
The Tor launcher seems excellent for the TBB's needs, but a bit more
feature-full controller doesn't seem overkill in the context of Tails.

But yeah, on the long term, things are rather blurry, and I do agree
it may not be the best idea ever to implement new features in Vidalia
without finding a new maintainer (team) for it.

Cheers,
