I'm very much tempted to let the TBB folks research the implications
of changing this setting. I am not really in a mood to create tickets
in our own tracker for every potential Torbutton / Tor Browser issue.
I've subscribed to the ticket on Tor's Trac.

So, IMHO, case closed for now as far as we're concerned, and let's
just wait for the fix to flow in from upstream when it's tested
and ready.

Cheers,
