Comment(by schulze):

 But this is not just a Windows problem. If somebody installs Tor on Linux
 using his distributions own packages (or the Tor projects deb/rpm
 repository) he will get a Tor configured to listen on 9050.
 If the user doesn't fix his torrc manually, Torbirdy will fail to connect
 to the network.

 I guess this is not too much of a problem, because most people use TBB as
 the version of Tor recommended on https://www.torproject.org/download/,
 but it will be for some.
