 The oodles of (what look like) l10n files in HTTPSeverywhere make it
 impractical to install TBB to a USB stick. It took more than an hour to
 copy a finished installation folder to a fat32 formatted USB 2.0 stick
 (dont know how long, i gave up after an hour) on an i7 Windows 7 computer.
 Installing directly to USB stick fails with timeouts.

 Suggestion: Could the installation be modified to omit files for locales
 the user doesnt need?

 This is more than an enhancement request, it is a usability bug. I dont
 know if it can be pushed upstream to EFF since TBB is responsible for
 final installation of the add-on.
