OK. From the top of my head, two vaguely related notes:

* We'll want to run Tor Launcher *only* when the user has ticked
a checkbox in the Greeter, right? Or do we run it in all cases?

* Note that we don't run the browser by default on network connection.
See the wrapper in /usr/local/bin/iceweasel.
