Comment(by mikeperry):
Two reasons not to: 1. It would allow you to easily differentiate people
who have not noticed the upgrade notice yet and are still vulnerable to
the latest Firefox exploit. 2. It would allow you to differentiate TBB-
stable from TBB-alpha.
#2 may not be a strong reason, though.. There will be likely be ways to
fingerprint these two groups apart as we test out new features in alpha
:/.
If we had a working autoupdater, I could be more easily convinced tracking
the FF version closely was a good idea.
