 Replying to [comment:4 gk]:

 comment:74:ticket:9901.

 Thanks for that pointer. Since it is difficult to prove that external
 applications will not be launched without prompting (especially given the
 complexity of the external app handling code), Kathy and I plan to
 preserve the existing, Tor-specific dialog. Patches will be posted in
 #19273.
