Comment(by mikeperry):

 For Tor Browser Bundle, doing a New Identity Button is actually much
 easier, because Vidalia now launches both Tor and Firefox. It passes a
 control port password to Tor via the command line. It can pass this same
 password to Torbutton via an environment variable. This way, Torbutton can
 connect to Tor's control port to send the SIGNAL NEWNYM itself.
