The changes that required patching Thunderbird have already
been upstreamed.

The other changes are merely setting prefs to non-default values,
which I doubt can be upstreamed as-is: in most cases, I expect
upstream has a reason to set the defaults the way they do for general
purpose Thunderbird usage.

Examples and pointers to the implementation are in the "3.6.14
Thunderbird" section of our design doc:
