> As for the race condition, I don't think that's true. I think that is
because torbutton isn't a restartless extension. It requires restarting
after installation. I don't think there's anyway way we can prevent this.
I wonder if we can force a restart (semi-transparently) at the end of the
firstrun onboarding screen.
I agree that leaving the user without Torbutton is suboptimal especially
as they would be looking for the slider settings (I assume we advertise
those) and might not restart the browser (who is restarting things today
anyways unless one is not forced too?). Is there some quick fix for this
then we could include it in the alpha. If it's more elaborate and we need
to think more I don't want to delay the alpha further for that (we can add
the restart this to the TBA alpha "manual"). Anyway, I think that's for a
new ticket.
