 A really common user request lately has been how to set up Tor Browser as
 their default browser, e.g. when they click on urls in their email in
 thunderbird.

 I'm under the impression that the current Tor Browser team answer is
 "don't do that, it's dangerous". Is that right? If so we should write it
 down explicitly, along with some intuitions for why it's dangerous so
 people will understand why.

 And if not, we should write up some heuristics or hints or guides or
 something for how to do it most safely.
