So Mozilla didn't bother to fix it as an emergency, but TBB does. Do we
know more about the motivations of Firefox and TBB to decide that? Does
this attack has some special power in the context of TBB?

No strong opinion, but not really available either :(
I don't feel qualified enough to judge the importance of that bug...
Regarding our schedule 1.4.1 is planned to be release on June 30 (25
days from now). The vulnerability has been announed on May 20 (16 days
ago). When would 1.4.X be released? During how many days would this
emergency be used?
